Hi everybody, thanks for suggestions; In between I've posted some comments and wondered why there was no answer to them - now I realized that I've simply replied to the people sending the comments, not the grass-user forum. Sorry for the confusion. Here, once more, I attach what I wanted to write to the grass user forum:
2-nd mail (reply to Moritz): Actually, the .csv table was made from .dbf table of an existing vector map. The problem is that I want to use v.db.join to transfer one attribute from that table to another vector map through a common key; When I tried v.db.join directly on the .dbf table, it said the .dbf format is not supported. I am affraid v.in.ascii will produce a .dbf table, so it does not serve my purpose. 3-rd mail (reply to Hamish): Thanks for suggestions. In between I took a "way of least resistance" and achieved my goal by a couple of OpenOffice Calc operations directly on .dbf files (instead of using db.in.ogr + v.db.join). However, the method of using this sequence of commands (db.in.ogr + v.db.join) is recommended and used in an example in Neteler, Mitasova, 2008: Open Source GIS and GRASS GIS Approach (Third Edition) - page 180. Therefore, I would like to find out what's the problem - is there a bug in the GRASS modules, or my .csv file in not OK?
