Does anyone know if you can import csv text files into postgres

I have tried the COPY command and it needs to have an existing table,
while what I want to do is create a new table from a csv file.

Also is there any way to define the text seperater ala MSSQL eg
field seperator = ,
text seperator = "

Thanks
