Re: Access export overflow

I don't know what the problem is, but I would suspect
some weirdness in Access.

For exporting from Access to PostgreSQL, I suggest you
take a look at the "Database Migration Wizard" that
comes with PgAdminII (but not yet PgAdminIII,
regrettably). I have had good experiences using that
wizard, which transparently does things like creating
appropriate sequences for your "autonumber" columns,
and creating referential integrity relationships based
on your Access setup.
