Adrian, I actually figured it out. It was a really silly mistake - basically
I was testing something earlier and edited my ODBC connection string. I was
actually connecting to the wrong database and it was an empty database, so
ODBCDataReader was trying to pull data from an empty table. Anyways, this is
fixed. However, I have a new problem.

I occasionally get an ERROR: 22021: invalid byte sequence for encoding
"UTF8": 0x92 when using the COPY query and this stops the whole process. It
occurs here in my code...

var raw = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(string.Concat(dataEntry, "\n"));
copy.CopyStream.Write(raw, 0, raw.Length);

dataEntry is a string. I have tried a few things to try and remove any
non-UTF8 characters from the string, but it has failed so far. Any ideas?

Look at this page:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/interactive/multibyte.html

Postgres recognizes and can convert quite a few character sets. If you know what character set you are working with you can use SET CLIENT_ENCODING. See bottom of above page for examples.
