[GRASS-user] missing dbf table for point theme

Dear list,

I imported points from ascii table into GRASS 6.3 ORC5. Now I would like to assign values to these points. So doing the v.db.connect command GRASS tells me that there is no table for this layer.
Besides, using the v.db.addtable command to add an attribute table to the layer the message appears that there is already a table linked to the layer.

What to do now?

Regards

Chris

Did you use the "column" parameter?
What does

v.info -c yourmap

say?

Dear Markus,

the following error message occurs:
DBMI-DBF driver error:
Table 'messstationen' doesn't exist

ERROR: Cannot open table

And that's the statement I used:
v.in.ascii -n 'input=/ output= format=point fs=| skip=0 'columns=x double precision, y double precision' x=1 y=2 z=0 cat=1

Did I set the right numbers for the columns?

Regards

Chris
