Re: Importing from CSV, auto creating table?

Hi Stan,

I uploaded to the database (PostgreSQL 9.6), monthly and for several
years, over 50 000 000 csv records
using a version of pgtfutter that I compiled (with some changes if I
remember correctly) and the tables
were created in loading process from the column titles.
