Обсуждение: Copying few tables from one database to another

Hello,

what is please the command to copy tables from 1 database
from another and is it possible at all without using pg_dump?

I'm trying to migrate 4700 users from phpBB 3 to Drupal 7
and have few custom tables in the "phpbb" database
which need to be copied over.

Using CentOS 5.5/64 bit + PostgreSQL 8.4.7

Thank you for the hints into the right direction
Alex

You can create Structure of table in New database and then you can use COPY Command to copy data as given below:
psql -c 'COPY tablename to STDOUT;' dbname|psql -c 'COPY tablename from STDIN;' dbname
