Hi Rusty, Try passing the output through a utility like sed, already there under Linux , but versions that work under Windows are available (eg, cygwin) eg, using a pipe: pg_dump -d.... | sed 's/public/test1/g' > dump.sql or converting a pg_dump output file: pg_dump <creates dump.sql> cat dump.sql | sed 's/public/test1/g' > dump2.sql With tools like these freely available, you don't really need to spend time reinventing them in your database applications. Of course. if you have the "public" schema name used elsewhere in your database, you may need to get a bit creative in your use of sed, but it can pretty well always be made to do this sort of operation. Cheers, Brent Wood >>> Rusty Conover <rconover@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> 05/04/08 8:42 AM >>> Hi All, Is there a way to pass a parameter to pg_dump that would make the produced dump be loaded into a different schema rather then the one it is being dumped from? Basically be able to say dump out of public, but write the dump so its restored to say "test1".
