Thanks so much. That's what I needed to know. I'm going to have to make some modifications to my script so that it reports what databases it's loading, and take steps to change the data types or, at least, hold them out.

I'm moving from PostgreSQL 8.2.4 to PostgreSQL 8.3.6. When I restore
the databases from the old instance to the new one, I get a lot of
errors where the data types in keys don't match, e.g. the data type is integer in the base file but defined as numeric in the file that it is linked to. These are running databases so this situation must have been negotiated by 8.2 but not my 8.3. Is this something relatively new that I'm encountering, or is there a parameter someplace that I have set too
tightly.

It's new -- some casts changed from implicit to explicit in 8.3.
