Ok. It appears that I can subscribe now! Sorry about that....
Hi List.
I'm looking for help with v.out.ogr.
The goal is to import SDTS DLGs into GRASS and export them as ESRI_shapefiles WITH the Elevation attribute information. Ultimately I would like to create a scriptt o do many files (all 50 that I have).
I still cannot export the Elevation attributes for my DLG...I have

This is the first time I am trying to use the new database functionality, so please bear with me! My goal is to export at least the cat field so that I can join the table manually in ArcView.
Thank you so much for any advice!

All steps are correct, I have no idea. Try to export other map
and try GML output.

Something I noticed when using the r.contour command: the elevations are added not only as attributes, but as the z of the vectors. Back when the elevs were not put in an attrib, but just the cat (and z), I noticed that the vector z value is not exported to the shapefile attribute table, but it does show up in d.what.vect (it's with the length info). Maybe v.in.ogr is putting the elevation into the vector z and not an actual attribute? (as an attribute, it should show up in a 'field' in d.what.vect)
just a thought. don't have any DLGs handy to test.
