Is there a way to force a value when you're doing a COPY FROM, importing
a file into a table?
Here's my query as it is now:
COPY filetable (value1, value2, value3, value4, forcevalue1,
forcevalue2)
FROM 'C:\\InsertFiles\\thisfile.txt' WITH DELIMITER AS ' '
;
The file only contains data for values 1 through 4. I'd like to insert
values for the last two fields. This is what I had in mind, which
doesn't work:
COPY filetable (value1, value2, value3, value4, forcevalue1,
forcevalue2)
FROM 'C:\\InsertFiles\\thisfile.txt' WITH DELIMITER AS ' ', forcevalue1 = 1, forcevalue2 = 'this value'
;
TIA
