Hi Enrico,

The following command will get you a text file of your result-set:

# echo "SELECT customer_id, first_name, sur_name FROM users;"|/usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -U [username] -d [database] > myfile.txt
# cat myfile.txt

customer_id | first_name | sur_name
-------------+------------+----------

Or you can dump a specific table:

# /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dump --table=[tablename] [database]

Regards,

Andy.

Is there any way to make a dump from a query?

For example if my query is:

select field1,field2 from table

Does it exist a shell command like pg_dump --QUERY myquery -f myfile?

Have a nice day
Enrico
