So my script worked, except where MS SQL wanted a
default of 'E' for a Float8 column. There were actually 3 columns I needed
to do manually, 2 putting character values into numeric fields, and one when
confused about a timezone issue. (The vendor is getting back to me on that
one).
Purdy successful, all in all.
So here's my question.
The utility I wrote was useful for me. It's
ugly beyond words, and it's undoubtedly filled with errors, never mind having
things that could just be done better. (For example, I forget how to
rename a file, so I use a NASTY workaround. I open the bad filename for
input, and the good filename for output, and the just input from one, and write
into the other until it's done.) I have NEVER claimed to be a coder, and
fear not, I'll stay the hell away from the kernel.
So what do I do with this piece of useful junk I
created? Should I send it to the Postgres guys for them to laugh at?
Or hang my head in shame, and pretend it never existed. I'm certainly not
putting my name on it, but there is the possibility that someone else might find
a use for it.
Kev.
