Unable to execute \copy from Client Application

Hello All,

My application is a C++ APP.

I'm executing \copy command from the CPP and its as follows

strPgSqlQuerybuf<<"\\copy hnb_registration FROM
'/root/Sujay/hnbfile.txt' USING DELIMITERS ','";

Second \ is to keep the compiler happy. When this command
executes on PostGreSql,
gives a syntax error as

ERROR: syntax error at or near "\" at character 1
STATEMENT: \copy hnb_registration FROM '/root/Sujay/hnbfile.txt'
USING DELIMITERS ','

Can some please help!

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Sujay
