For instance, I have a file called PPPOINT.E00. This file contains Populated Places for Honduras in Point format. City points basically. This file contains the lat/lons of the points, and city names.
when I use avcimport the city names are lost, and all I have are the points, no names.
Is there a way to keep the city names? I might need to use the library to create my own program, but then I still don't know how they city names join to the lat/lon information.
Thanks again,
Jerl

Jerl,
I would suggest you use the "avcimport" program to convert the
E00 file to an arc/info binary vector coverage which OGR can
read.
