Hello,
I'm using COPY to load CSV data into the table in PG 10.x and have to simple
questions:
1. I do use as command:
COPY adm_cat FROM '/home/sisis/PostgreSQL/PDcsv/adm_cat.load' WITH DELIMITER '|' CSV ;
which works fine. When I read the PG docs the syntax should be
... WITH DELIMITER '|', FORMAT CSV ;
But this gives an syntax error as:
LINE 1: .../PostgreSQL/PDcsv/adm_cat.load' WITH DELIMITER '|', FORMAT C...
and the ',' is marked as its place. Why?
2. The CSV export is done by some Sybase tool which escapes the
delimiter as '\|', i.e. putting a backslash before the delimiter. I
found no way that COPY understands this excaping. Any ideas?
Thanks
matthias
