Hello.

 After GeomUnioning  multipolygons by grouping a given field, both polygon &
multipolgon typed geometries were generated in new table.

 I tried to execute pgsql2shp to generate a shapefile.

 However   pgsql2shp said following error message.

ERROR: Cannot have multiple geometry types in a shapefile.
Use option -t(unimplemented currently,sorry...) to specify what type of
geometry you want dumped

 Could you tell me this resolution?

 Regards.
