Andre is right - qgis (_like other gis systems too)_ cannot display points, lines and polygons in one layer. It has to be either points or lines or polygons. In a kml-file this is no problem.

The "like other gis systems" part of your statement is total hogwash. Sorry.
You've obviously only been brought up on a diet of ShapeFiles.

Apologies, but you've touched a nerve here. Far too many people have only seen one product, and have possibly even just based the development of their products on Shapefiles.

If you want to flame me for this, please start a new thread, so that my rant does not end up hijacking this thread.
