Default Re: Problems on "copy" statement

Thanks for your reply.

Run the sql:

SELECT schemaname, tablename
FROM pg_tables
WHERE tablename ILIKE '%hsi%';


get:

schemaname tablename

public



HSI


when run the sql:

copy public.HSI from 'c:\java\hsi.txt'


error:

ERROR: relation "public.hsi" does not exist



er...did I do something silly? What is the problem?

Thanks in advance.
