Hello,

What do y ou mean by opening the attributes table and looked at geometries ? 
With pgadmin there are limitations on number of characters displayed. I dont 
know with qgis. Did y ou open the table as spatial data un qgis or openjump ? 
Does the expected number of geometries appear ?

Is there a limit to the number of points or character linelengh that can be 
used to create a linestring?
 
I used QGis to trace some roads then exported the layer as a KML file.  I wrote 
a script to create a table and add attributes to the table then copied the 
coordinates from the KML into the script after manipulating the punctuation and 
white space.  When I open the attributes table only some of the lines showed 
geometry.  I played with the script for a while and it seemd like there was a 
limit to somewhere around 4,000 characters.  It did not seem to be a hard limit 
at 4,000 but it was pretty close.
 
If there is a limit is there a way to change the configuration to get past 
this?  Some of the strings used with STY_GeomFromText where around 7,000 
characters.
 
Bruce
