This worked where E: is on the database server
copy imagineoptions
from 'E:\\ORGDAT~1\\data\\xxxPositions\\20081112_Options.csv'
DELIMITERS ',' CSV ;
This does not work fileprint-01 is a different server.
copy imagineoptions
from
\\fileprint-01\Company\xxx\Benchmarking\xxxPositions\20081112_Options.cs
v
DELIMITERS ',' CSV ;
So the COPY FROM command in Postgres can not handle a URL
Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Subject: Re: [GENERAL] simple COPY FROM issue
The file must be on the server. IIRC, with COPY FROM (as opposed to COPY
TO) the path can be relative to the server process dir but it's probably
a good idea to always use an absolute path.
If you wish to copy from the client machine you can use \copy within
psql.
