I am experiencing difficulty in trying to copy the file structure below
into PostgreSQL table:

||001||,||Classification||,||Economics||,||N||
||001||,||Classification||,||Trends||,||Y||
etc...

Although I can preprocess the input file with e.g awk, I would like to
know is it possible to do that directly in PostgreSQL.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
I think you might be able to.  You can have CSV with your pipes
(as QUOTE in [ CSV [ HEADER ] [ QUOTE [ AS ] 'quote' ] )
