Hi,

How to take dump based of condition i.e using where clauses in postgres?

For example i want to take dump of 1 week data from my table y and
import that 1 week data in to the same table after truncating the table

my table name is  y having field name date and my  query is of  select
*  from y where date >'2006-04-12';

how should i import  the data taken using select statement using where
condition in postgres.


Regards,
