Hi all,

I need to know how I can access a flat file from within a PL/PGSQL script.
I have an Oracle PL/SQL book here and they refer to FOPEN(...), FCLOSE(...)
but these functions don't seem to exist in PL/PGSQL.. What can I do instead?
I checked the Programmer's Guide to Procedural Languages (PostGreSQL 7.1.2
and 7.2) but there is no info on it.

Best regards,
Chris
