/><pre>G'day,

Is there an equivalent in Postgres to the DTS Packages available in M$ 
SQL server.

I use these in SQL server to pre-load data from CSV files prior to 
enabling replication from my primary application. Any pointers on where 
best to go for this would be appreciated. I'm reading about something 
called EMS, is that the way to go?

Sample of one of the files I use:
