Do your path set to look in the ‘bin’ folder?
Try opening the command window and then change the directory to the Postgres bin folder –
Cd “c:\program files\postgresql\8.0\bin”
Then type in ‘psql –d DBNAME –U postgres’
This is assuming you are running Windows 2000/xp pro with version 8.0 and the default install.

Subject: [NOVICE] psql goes away in a flash
When I type 'psql' in the cmd window, it brings up a screen that closes too fast to read. What can I do to fix this?
