I need to add a large number(1000) records to my table. How would I do this
using a file? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Assumming its a csv file (though you can use tabs/pipes etc as delimiters:
Using psql


copy TargetTable from 'YourFileAndPath' using delimiters '\,';

more info at

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/sql-copy.html

and

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.3/static/app-psql.html

The latter concerns psql's \copy command, used if permissions are a problem.

Hope this helps
