If this is just a one time thing and you are going from Clarion to Postgress, just export the DBF files (I believe Clarion is DBF formated) as SDF format, and transfer this file over to the Postgres machine. Once there use the copy command to get them in, or write a quick awk script to generate a bunch of selects.
If your going the other way do a select on the table selecting all fields, such as:
select * from blah;
write this select statement to a file and then type:
psql -f queryfile > results
Now you have a fixed length text file (with little bars between each field). With a little massaging you should be able to export it into Clarion.
These are one time solutions though, and will not help you if you need to do this over and over again...james
