Re: COPY FROM and INSERT INTO rules

From the 8.3 docs...

"Be aware that COPY ignores rules. ... COPY does fire triggers, so you can use it normally if you use the trigger approach."

All,

I have a rule written on a temp table which will copy the values inserted into it to another table applying a function. The temp table will be discarded then. The rules I have written works when I use "Insert into" the temp table. But when I use bulk copy "COPY FROM", the rule doesn't get triggered and data is inserted only into the temp table that I created.

Is there a way to call a rule when I use "COPY FROM" instead of "INSERT INTO"

TIA,
Sairam
