[postgis-users] Tiger Files on Windows PostGIS

I work in a Windows environment and want to do GeoCoding and Web Mapping in
a .NET environment   I have recently downloaded all the tiger files for the
US but really can not make out how I am to get them into the database.
Part of the problem is that I have worked with Windows based GIS packages in
the past so the instructions about Pearl scripts and such are foreign to me.
The only piece of information I found was a county by county script which
would obviously take an enormous amount of time.  I also noticed that of the
scripts were for the 2005 tiger files and wondered if there are some changes
that needed to be accounted for in the new ones.

If someone has experience and information about working in Windows and
especially getting the Tiger data into the database I would be glad to set
up a forum on the net to help pass along the information.

Thanks for any information you might have
