Yes. PostgreSQL has a COPY command that you can use to import data from a delimited text file. You will have to create the table prior to using the copy command. The text file should have only one delimiter. Many text files use quotes to enclose text values in addition to having a delimiter between data fields. PostgreSQL doesn't handle this situation. If you have problems with this part, let me know. There are ways to fix this problem.
