If you use the `matt=______` option on the command line with v.in.dlg then
a second file - a multiple attributes file - is created. This should have
the the elevation data. It will also have other data (minor and major codes)
and you will have to use awk or some manual editing to get the attributes in
the format needed by GRASS' dig_att file. I recently went throught this
process myself.

Subject: v.import/v.in.dlg omission of point elevations
In importing DLG hypsography files, neither v.import
nor v.in.dlg appears to bring in the point elevations.
Is there an easy way to get these imported too?I have been learning a lot of awk extracting the points
from the raw DLG file separately and appending them to
the ascii version of the GRASS hypso file or bringing them
in as sites, but this is kind of a pain in the butt.John Mackenzie
