Borys:
Yeah, on the fly is exactly what I am looking for.
I'll provide a concrete example of what I need: I have a point SHAPE file of
official place names. These place names are linked to a table of war casualty
information and are linked via an attribute field. I'd like to link the two
tables together in QGIS and select the place name and edit it's war casualty
information and have it saved to that table but not actually combine the tables.
Thanks,
Bob Bruce

But it creates a new shapefile with a new, combined table. On the fly joins are
still missing. To be honest, I don't know - is there anybody working on it at
the time?
