Hi Carson, There is no define projection tool in the tools menu. Which version of QGIS r u using? I am using MIMAS ver 1.3.0
Regarding the second method if I right click and click "save as shapefile" it only asks the place to save and not CRS. Pls let me know if u have a solution to this. Thanks for your reply. sunny.
