Hello,
Thank you for all your answers.
I did indeed generate a .csv from OpenOffice (Excel could do the job as well)
and I imported it into Postgresql using 'copy'.
I had to put the .csv files into /tmp to avoid permissions issues but it went
fine and fast.
To import 45000 lines took about a second. This is impressive...
Thanks for your help.
