When importing data from a CSV file to a new PostgreSQL table with a column of type "TEXT" defined, it appears that the underlying table DDL statement includes the column length. This is invalid for a PostgreSQL text column and results in the following error:
ERROR: type modifier is not allowed for type "text"
I worked around the problem by copying the DDL text from the log window to a SQL commander tab and removing the column length. This allowed me to create the table.

Re: Error importing to new PostgreSQL table
Hi Steve,
You can also remove the size on the wizard page where the new table is defined.
Best Regards,
