I have a text file which I exported in tab delimited format from Filemaker Pro on Windows, cleaned up in openoffice.org and want to import into postgres. the first few characters in the file are killing me and I haven't a clue on how to rid the file of them... 0000000 357 273 277 1 \t B l o o d B o r n e it's the 357 273 277 that don't belong...the data should start with "1" where did they come from and how do I get rid of them?
