Hello,<br>> This may be more of a postgresql question, but it is related to my postgis<br>> setup. I was hoping that someone might know of an easy way to load a dbf<br>> into postgresql table.

Is there a similar tool for<br>> loading just a dbf?<br>><br>> Thanks,<br>> Derek<br><br>Derek,<br><br>Use the -n switch with shp2pgsql will do what you want:<br> shp2pgsql -n<br>Also ogr2ogr will do the trick. ogr2ogr can also handle conversions<br>between numerous other spatial and non-spatial data formats.
