Hi

I have imported a shape file into QGis and then did attribute join (under menu Vector>Data Management Tools>Join Attribute) to add some additional attributes and it worked perfectly. I then imported the same shape file into PostgreSQL/PostGis using SPIT plugin in QGis and then tried to do attribute join folloeing same procedure - it did not work. It seems that Join Attribute will not work if the data is in PostgreSQL/PostGIS DBMS. Any suggestion?
As far as I know, the Join Attribute feature in Vector tools is only for dbf tables. What you'll have to do is import your additional attribute table also to PostGIS, then do the join within Postgres with database mamangement tools (i.e. using the PostGIS Manager Plugin in QGIS).
