Hi-
Yes-I had already tried that....that is when I was given a list of what was all
possible switches were and hence why I tried -e.
psql: illegal option -- E
Usage: psql [options] [dbname]
-a authsvc set authentication service
-A turn off alignment when printing out attributes
-c query run single query (slash commands too)
-d dbName specify database name
-e echo the query sent to the backend
-f filename use file as a source of queries
-F sep set the field separator (default is '|')
[cut]
Any other thoughts?
Thanks-
Beth
