Hi,
I have a SHP file of some 1.1m polygons, of which I need to select about half of them, and save them as a separate SHP file.

The trouble is when I select either via a Query, or via the TABLE using the select options below, it just falls asleep (100% CPU (ok, 12% as it must be single-threaded)).
After 45 minutes or so, I just kick it out and weep.

My platform is Win 7 Prof 64 bit (also tried on 32 bit) and using 1.8.0 Lisboa.

The selects I have tried are: "sq21code" = "C016*" and also tried using "IN"

Any ideas what I am doing wrong and what I should try next?

Thanks & regards,
Zoltan
