Re: [GENERAL] COPY with default values won't work? - Mailing list pgsql-general

@#$#!!  Any way to make COPY use default, or shove a lot of data in with a
single INSERT query?  According to older messages in the mailing list, it
is *possible*, but I can't get it to work.

My problem is that I might be using this to put a few thousand entries in
the db every night, and when I last attempted this using a few thousand
insert statements, it was awfully slow (on the order of taking HOURS)

BTW: Thanks for the quick response.  I send the mail, answer some messages,
and get a response.  Quicker than a Microsoft $0.95/min help line. :-)
