Try dbf2pg if you're looking for a binary program that converts xbase (.dbf) to postgres format. Then just create the script. Warning - it ain't perfect for all... :) dbf2pg is available via anonymous ftp from ftp.neros-world.com/pub/msql/contrib/dbf2mysql There are also Perl routines which can do xbase->postgres (haven't used them though Orly mentioned of it a couple of months ago). -- Paolo Alexis Falcone [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Simplicity does not precede complexity, but follows it." _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
