I never you had to change the SplitTable function, just change the argument you pass to it. and you have to create a new id per filename. rid is not unique per filename.<br><br>Pierre<br><br>> -----Original Message-----<br>> From: <a ymailto="mailto:postgis-users-bounces@postgis.refractions.net" href="mailto:postgis-users-bounces@postgis.refractions.net">postgis-users-bounces@postgis.refractions.net</a> [mailto:postgis-users-<br>> <a ymailto="mailto:bounces@postgis.refractions.net" href="mailto:bounces@postgis.refractions.net">bounces@postgis.refractions.net</a>] On Behalf Of Giannis Giakoumidakis<br>> Sent: Friday, September 07, 2012 4:44 AM<br>> To: Pierre Racine; PostGIS Users Discussion<br>> Subject: Re: [postgis-users] upload a folder of raster files<br>> <br>> I firstly try with rid to see if it's working.
