Dear all, I have to copy the file with the following delimiters into the database: ||5354235||,||some text...|| ||1234567||,||some text...|| ||1234568||,||some text...|| The sql statement I defined was: COPY testtable FROM 'test.txt' WITH DELIMITER AS ',' CSV QUOTE AS '||'; but the error: ERROR: COPY quote must be a single ASCII character Any solution? Thank you in advance. Best, Andrej ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
