I want to convert some data from ARC/INFO to GRASS. I used ungenerate command in ARC/INFO to create
the three files required for v.in.arc, polygon coordinates file, label-points file and label text file.
Then when I used v.in.arc via the interactive mode, it couldn't recognize the label text file format.
I created this file in ARC/INFO using unload command and then imported to Exel and saved it as a text
(tab delimited) format . There are 5 columns in this file but v.in.arc's interactive mode can
recognize only the first column in this file. I could not use Display command in Info as recommended in
the GRASS Manual simply because this command displays or prints on the sreen the specified categories
in the look up table but it does not save them to a file. Please, if anyone can tell me how to create
this label text file?.
Thanks in advance
