Hi there, one of our clients has supplied a database as a 3MB “dump” from their database provider. The first few characters of the file are: --
-- Selected TOC Entries:
--
\connect - postgres
--
-- TOC Entry ID 103 (OID 16556)
--
-- Name: "plpgsql_call_handler" () Type: FUNCTION Owner: postgres
--
CREATE FUNCTION "plpgsql_call_handler" () RETURNS opaque AS '$libdir/plpgsql', 'plpgsql_call_handler' LANGUAGE 'C';
--
-- TOC Entry ID 104 (OID 16557)
--
-- Name: plpgsql Type: PROCEDURAL LANGUAGE Owner:
--
CREATE TRUSTED PROCEDURAL LANGUAGE 'plpgsql' HANDLER "plpgsql_call_handler" LANCOMPILER '';
\connect - root
--
-- TOC Entry ID 2 (OID 61967)
--
-- Name: staff_id_seq Type: SEQUENCE Owner: root
--
CREATE SEQUENCE "staff_id_seq" start 1 increment 1 maxvalue 9223372036854775807 minvalue 1 cache 1;
--
-- TOC Entry ID 4 (OID 61969)
--
-- Name: client_id_seq Type: SEQUENCE Owner: root
--
CREATE SEQUENCE "client_id_seq" start 1 increment 1 maxvalue 9223372036854775807 minvalue 1 cache 1;
--
-- TOC Entry ID 6 (OID 61971)
--
-- Name: question_group_id_seq Type: SEQUENCE Owner: root
--
CREATE SEQUENCE "question_group_id_seq" start 1 increment 1 maxvalue 9223372036854775807 minvalue 1 cache 1;
--
-- TOC Entry ID 8 (OID 61973)
--
-- Name: question_
My question is naturally, how do I turn this into data I can ODBC to (or any other access method) from SAS, which I run under windows. I have a unix machine on our network, but any options considered.
Many thanks for any help.
