Please, don't get me wrong - I don't want to come across arrogant. I'm simply trying to improve the 'COPY FROM' command in a situation where speed is a critical issue and the data is dirty... And that must be a relatively common scenario in industry. And I never said the duplicate should be silently ignored - an elog(NOTICE) should still be output. Lee.
