Another option is use SQL pass through to append records from ACCESS

the command would look something like this
Insert into PosgresTable (f1, f2, f3,) Select f1, f2, f3 from
AccessTable
It seems to me that SQL pass-through is kind of contrary to what the
OP needs.
A query in SQL pass-through mode will be executed as if it was typed
in psql, that's the point of this mode. So refering to an Access table
like your example query does is not going to work.
What the OP can do is attach the CSV file in Access so that it will
appear as a table and should be usable as such in an update or insert
query within Access query builder. It's quite straightforward, there's
no need for temp files or COPY.
Best regards,
TO quote the OP "I'm using Access as that is a point of comfort for me.
I can write a .net procedure though I'm not exactly firm on the procedure."
So i thought it would be nice to point the OP in the right direction in
getting that to work. learning how to setup connection strings and
write SQL queries in access will carry over to pretty much everything else.
