[GRASS-user] importing problem

hi,

I’m trying to import a shape file shp, but I couldn’t do that.
I tried v.in.ogr but there was some problems, even when i tried to create a location it was also a problem
My projection information are as follows:

PROJCS[“PCS_Transverse_Mercator”,GEOGCS[“GCS_Clarke_1866”,DATUM[“D_Clarke_1866”,SPHEROID[“Clarke_1866”,6378206.4,294.9786982]],PRIMEM[“Greenwich”,0],UNIT[“Degree”,0.017453292519943295]],PROJECTION[“Transverse_Mercator”],PARAMETER[“False_Easting”,500000],PARAMETER[“False_Northing”,0],PARAMETER[“Central_Meridian”,-171],PARAMETER[“Scale_Factor”,0.9996],PARAMETER[“Latitude_Of_Origin”,0],UNIT[“Meter”,1]]

but i couldn’t find the thing called Clarke_1866

I also tried to import .e00 files (the shane problem) but i had the same problem withe Clarke_1866,

If i tried to use an old location and import the data:
for Shane files .e00 noting was displayed because the location was wrong.
I tried g.region vect=“a vector” and it worked.

But my problem was with the shp files where nothing was displayed because the size of the proj file was larger than usual.

Please help me
