If you are just wanting to move the data (i.e., the structure uses static) you could maybe explore using MS Access as an intermediary???

Not sure about using DTS to do it (only just starting playing with that myself), but to get PostgreSQL data to a flat file for importing, you could do something like:

 

BEGIN;

SELECT col1, col2, col3, col7, col8, col9

INTO TEMP export

FROM Postgres_table

WHERE whatever = something;

COPY export TO ‘/path/to/save/exported/file.tsv’;

COMMIT;

 

I use this method in scripts to move data between databases on PostgreSQL.

Hi,

 

I have one question regarding the connectivity to PostGreSQL Database.

 

Question: Is it possible to connect to the PostGreSQL database through Microsoft SQL Server 2000 version in the DTS Package.

There is a requirement to pull data from PoseGreSQL database into SQL Server Database.

 

In case, it's not possible, is there any way to export the data in a flat file, so that I can use this for importing in SQL server database.

 

Please let me know how should I go about that.

 

Thanks
Amit
