I am trying to convert a MS SQL database to postgres. I have done it
this way:

1) use Access -> link to MS SQL
2) install postgress ODBC driver
3) use Access -> copy -> ODBC compliant database.
4) set up the database in postgress
5) do the copy from access.

the file Dx for the table Dx is created in the base/sw_codes database. the
file contains the data, so it is being copied correctly by access to
postgres..

however I cannot access the table from psql. I get the following
message:

Welcome to psql, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

Type: \copyright for distribution terms
\h for help with SQL commands
\? for help on internal slash commands
\g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
\q to quit

sw_codes=# select * from Dx;
ERROR: Relation 'dx' does not exist

sw_codes=# \dt
List of relations
Name | Type | Owner
------+-------+----------
Dx | table | rshepard
(1 row)

can some one help?

postgres v 7.03
odbc v 6.5 (can't find odbc v 7.x)

thanks
