Hi

I've got a table that has two columns in it one is a
sequence and the second is
a inet unique, and I want to add multiple rows all at once
rather than issuing
the insert comand two thousand times.

Even when trying manually I can't get it to accept two rows
at once, I've tried
things like:

INSERT INTO ip_list (ip_address) VALUES ('212.1.136.246',
'212.1.156.23');

and

INSERT INTO ip_list (ip_address) VALUES ('212.1.136.246'),
('212.1.156.23');

but just get parse errors.  It's fine inserting one row at a
time.

Using perl using the Pg module is there a way of adding a
whole array where each
element will go into a seperate row.

Any help greatly received.
