[postgis-users] shp2pgsql question

[Stephen Davies]

I need to load data from a shape file into a PostGIS database.
shp2pgsql almost does this for me but the geometry type generated is 
MULTIPOLYGON(2) instead of POLYGON as required by the table constraint.

Is there a way to edit the generated SQL to tell PostGIS to convert from 
one to the other? (I would prefer to not have to use a temporary 
table).

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen Davies
