When you say "divide the counties" do you have the geographic boundaries of the districts is the second "table"?


information on each county, but does not contain the District information.  I have a different table that contains the county name (identical to the original table) and the District designation (A, B, C etc)

 

I can’t find a way to import the second table into the project and sync it with the first, so I can then color District A red and District B green etc.


Can you add just the districts and color them all different colors?


 

I’ve read thru the user guide and thru a couple of months’ worth of this user group, but haven’t found the answer.  I’m looking for “QGIS 4 Dummies”, I guess.  Could somebody steer me in the right direction, please?
