Обсуждение: Dump from mssql

If none of your data contains commas, you can load it in with copy,
changing delimiters to , and then update the fields to strip out the "
once the data is loaded.

If your data does contain commas (,) you'll need to do some awk/sed/perl
magic to better delimit your file (perhaps a @@@ between each field?)
Actually the DTS program might allow you to do this as well.
