Say, I have a shape file containing few text type columns that I need to use in grass.
After importing to grass, I want to get all columns.
What might be the procedure I have to follow ?

For 5.0/5.3 versions of GRASS:
use v.in.shape multiple times with the label= option, making a new
vector map each time for each data column. The old vector format can
only handle one attribute at a time. The new (GRASS 5.7) format is not
subject to this limitation.
GRASS 5.7:
use v.in.ogr and everything should just work.
Although it's more work, if you'll need use to multiple columns frequently, consider installing Postgresql and using pg.in.dbf.
