The following functions failed the regression tests: float 8 geometry abstime select_implicit select_having select_views rules This is right out of the tutorial: COPY INTO weather FROM '/home/user/weather.txt' USING DELIMITERS '|'; I build a table (simulation_stock_tb) which uses float8's and execute the following: pma=> copy INTO simulation_stock_tb from '/prgs/db/cps/load_ready3' USING DELIMITERS ' '; Using the SAME syntax as the "weather" example I get this error msg. ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "into" pma=> What is the connection (if any) between the float8 in the regression test and the "parse" error above? THANKS for your help! Lynn P. Tilby Lynn P.
