  1. Database formats

    mig_work@zipmail.com.br — 2000-12-19T16:59:15Z

      Hi. I'm new here.
     I'm involved in a project we use an linux based server, and a windows based
    client. It's still in the planning stage. In that project , I have to deliver
    an database to our client to it access offline. I want to know if there
    is some way to convert a PGSQL table to an  win - compatible database OR
    , if there is some way to I use this table in the windows , using something
    like a mini-pgsql server on windows or something like this.
    Thanks 
    Miguel Fernandez

    Theoretically speaking (meaning I haven't done it, but I've
    read about it), there are lots of ways.  You could have PostgreSQL
    talk to a Windows application via ODBC.  You could read your table
    from PostgreSQL (perhaps with perl) and write a comma seperated
    volue (CSV) file(s).  There are probably a bunch of other ways too.
