Hi,

I have recently downloaded, PostgreSql 8.0-beta2-dev3 windows version. I am a newbie to postgresql, i have one question, How can i import or export the existing postgresql database running under unix flavour to windows based postgresql (8.0-beta2-dev3). Is there any facility under the new windows version ?

It is highly appreciated, if any one could show some light on this.

thanks,
kuru

Exporting on Unix using pg_dump and importing on Windows using psql or
pg_restore as appropriate should work just fine.
