Hi,

FWIW, years ago we developed a small tool to update fields/columns of a
shapefile dbf from a flatfile. This was essentially additions to shapelib/dbflib that added a few additional functions such as DBFWriteStringAttributeList and DBFWriteDoubleAttributeList.

The lib was additionally built as a loadable module under tcl...

Usage was like
UpdateDBF {DBFName txtDataFile txtFieldName FieldNo}

IIRC, we submitted the changes to shapelib maintainer, but I don't know if they ever made it.. Let me know and I can send it over with some basic usage instructions...

regards,

nikos
