PostgreSQL dump file

Firebird to PostgreSQL converter allows users to migrate Firebird database into PostgreSQL format even when there is no connection to PostgreSQL server available. Following this way, the program converts Firebird data into a local PostgreSQL dump file instead of migrating it to PostgreSQL server directly. The resulting file contains PostgreSQL statements to create all tables and to fill them with the data. Click here to learn how to import dump file into PostgreSQL database.
