You probably want something more similar to this: COPY imagineoptions FROM E'\\\\fileprint-01\\Company\\xxx\\Benchmarking\\xxxPositions\20081112_Options.csv' WITH CSV; > So the COPY FROM command in Postgres can not handle a URL Postgres doesn't handle URL's, but that's not what you entered. At most, you entered a UNC path (I believe, it's been a *long* time since I had to deal with these under windows) and not a URL. UNC paths always used to be handled transparently by the operating system and didn't need any special handling from normal processes, e.g. a Postgres server. If you could enter the command exactly as you entered it and also include the response back from the server that may help to narrow things down a bit.
