Hi Martin, you don't need to pay attention to levels when you import coordinates, the names just have to match. My guess is that even though you imported a district shapefile (GML) the names probably did not match. Make sure that the names in your <ogr:Name> tags in the GML file are matching exactly the orgunit names in the database.
You get districts when selecting regions. Are you sure you chose the correct name tags when you renamed to <ogr:Name> ? District shapefiles often have the region name as well. Knut, he selected the district level.
