Re: dbf to pgsql

Peter,

There is a dbf2pg in the contrib library, I have tried to use it, but I had
some probems with it: I had a numeric field whose decimal length was 0.
Dbf2pg couldn't handle this situation, it said that it has an illegel number
format. So I had to generate manually a big convertion script, and I fed to
psql.
EMS has a Data Import tool, it can handle DBF too.

Best Regards,
Otto
