Hi Team,

Here we go. I will give the problem in more detail

Step 1:We get the dump from DB2 and this dump is flat file which can be csv,txt
Step2:There is table in PostGre where we are suppose  to upload the dump
Step3:We are using copy command to upload dump to the table using (COPY <<TableName>> from 'C:\Data_Dump\ABC.txt' DELIMITER '|';  )

Should have been in my previous post. The answer to whether Step 1 is text or CSV is important as that determines the way you use the COPY command above. As has been pointed out upstream using COPY assuming text(as you are doing above) on a CSV file will create issues.

Step 4:In the above step we are using delimiter because the data is separated (:) in the flat which we have received from the flat file

Problem Statement:We are able to upload the data from the flat file which we got from the DB2 but few data the data consist of  " \".For example if the CustomerName is Vinod\G in the flat file ,we expect the same data in PostGre  table for CustomerName as Vinod\G but we see VinodG(slash is missed).

Possible Solution: We can replace "\" with "\\" but if the file is in too large we cannot open it(we can replace if the file is medium or small)

Expectation: We need a command or utility which can upload the data as it is (for example if Vinod\G then we should see in PostGre as Vinod\G but not VinodG)

Hope Iam detail this time :-)

Regards,
Vinod
