<br>
I need to convert the names (string) of classes, in some fields of a Shapefile, to the respective numerical values of the database.<br>
<br>
In some cases, the fields have up to 3 different classes, for different rows.<br>
</span><span lang="EN" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif"><br>
<span class="gmail-jlqj4b">CLASS A = 1</span></span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif">CLASS B = 3<br>
<br>
The destination table, this already exists, and contains many other fields, this using ogr2ogr.exe, from Windows CMD.<br>
<br>
How to indicate to ogr2ogr.exe, which performs a query first, to obtain the numerical value of the ' CLASS B', from PostGIS.<br>
<br>
In this way insert the value 2 in the table.<br>
