OT: Import/Export for PostgreSQL

2005-06-01 Thread George Abraham
All,
Anyone have a suggestion for a (preferably free) Import/Export tool
for PostgreSQL? I have to import/export from MS SQL Server and using
MS' DTS does not seem to be working due to this bug:
http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/psqlodbc/bugs/bugupdate.php?944

Thanks,
George

It's kind of a pain, and very slow with lots of data, but you can make
sql server generate sql for the schemas (you'll have to tweak the
sql a bit for it to work in postgres). You can then export the data
into sql statements using the all tasksexport data function in mssql,
and then run the script on postgres.

Very manual, very tedious, but I've done it before and it's worked. 

If you're going from postgres to mssql look at pgdump (man pgdump)

There is more than likely something better out there, but if it comes
down to it you can do it that way.

Export from MS SQL Server to CSV, import in PostgreSQL using 
COPY. Use pg_dump with full insert statements if you need to go 
the other way.
