[GRASS-user] V.in.db

Hi,

I imported a table with db.in.ogr of data set with 7 columns (see example below). Then I want to use V.IN.DB to create a new vector map with the 3D data set.

As the Name of Column (optional Tab), i used the “Particle” column as containing the category number, which is the attribute that i want to map. I get the error message that the data type should be an integer.

i have tried not setting the Category number as the attribute that i want to map, but then i get the message that xyz need to be integer in double. I am importing the file from csv file where the data points are as Numbers…
i really dont get it.
