Hei Rich,

Good to see that you don`t give up even if you ran into several issues or 
undocumented peculiarities.

As for the grass database:
I am not sure if I understand your question well, but in principle only GRASS 
itself should create or delete files and folders within the GRASS database.

At import data is converted into GRASS format, and GRASS creates the files and 
folders needed for that. 

In short, do not write or delete files and folders in your GRASS database 
"manually" you can messup your DB.
You would not save shape files in the FGDB directory either, would you?

Cheers
Stefan

Subject: [GRASS-user] Location not displayed when grass started

   I want to understand how grass7x finds data when starting.

   In my grass database, ~/data/grassdata/, I created a subdirectory named 
ODOT2014.gdb with all the OpenFileGDB files in it. However, when grass7.x 
starts it does not display that location in the left-side window.

   Grass will also not create a substitute location because location names 
created by the GUI cannot contain certain characters, including a period.

   I want to create a separate location for these data then reproject them from 
the target project directory.

TIA,

Rich
