I am using postgreSQL8.1 If you dumped using the text format, simply use the resulting dumpfile as input to psql, something like this - psql -f <dumpfile> - along with whatever other options are needed - see the online docs for psql. If you used one of the binary options, you'll need to use pg_restore - again, see the docs. --Ray. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Raymond O'Donnell Director of Music, Galway Cathedral, Galway, Ireland rod@xxxxxx ----------------------------------------------------------------------
