Hi,

Is it possible for the COPY command to read data from a file, but skip
specific columns?

Crap, read your message backwards. Sorry. No you can't do this.

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake





\h copy

COPY tablename [ ( column [, ...] ) ]
    TO { 'filename' | STDOUT }
    [ [ WITH ]
          [ BINARY ]
          [ OIDS ]
          [ DELIMITER [ AS ] 'delimiter' ]
          [ NULL [ AS ] 'null string' ]
          [ CSV [ QUOTE [ AS ] 'quote' ]
                [ ESCAPE [ AS ] 'escape' ]
                [ FORCE QUOTE column [, ...] ]

Yes.. you just have to specify the columns...

Sincerely,

Joshua D. Drake



Thanks
