See the reference I posted about SQL identifiers, in particular
where it talks about quoted identifiers:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/i...AX-IDENTIFIERS

Since the table name has uppercase letters, you'll have to quote
it. And now that I think about it, you might also have to escape
the backslashes in the file name or use dollar quotes (available
in 8.0 and later). Try one of these:

COPY "HSI" FROM 'c:\\java\\hsi.txt';
COPY "HSI" FROM $$c:\java\hsi.txt$$;
