Adrian,

It doesn't; it prints the contents of the file to the virtual terminal.
Using my default small editor, joe, I scrolled back through the file
displayed without seeing any error.

Should I run BEGIN: at the psql prompt prior to entering the insert command?
Would that tell me if any rows were entered and, if so, where that stopped?

TIA,

Rich
