I decided to reduce the number of columns of the csv / dbf file and use spatialite to do this job. Then, I desired table is dump into a shapefile.
It works but it took more than a hour to accomplish this task. The resulting spatialite database is 1.0 GB and the shapefile dbf file ( the dump file) is 522.2 Mb. My laptop is slow in opening the spatialite but hared time opening the shapefile. The data that I am working is country database in village level.
