Hi Federico,
Please email the list, and not the person directly.
The purpose of lists is to pool knowledge, not to give courses, so all
conversations relevant to the list should stay with the list.
Judging by your unfamiliarity with raster and vector data formats, it
seems like you need deeper knowledge about what you are doing, rather
than just assistance with the use of QGis.
I don't have any URLs I can suggest for this, but perhaps someone else
on this list can help.
Kind regards,
Zoltan

Dear Zoltan,
Many thanks for your prompt reply. I have not used shape file before
so you have to walk me through. My DSM is in .tiff format. Can I use
that instead of .shp?
Please give me a sample of an acceptable output file. Thanks!
Federico

I have reached as far as the Contour tab but unable to specify an
acceptable output file path in the *Output file for contour
lines(vector*). I tried to input _C:/User/Fritz/Documents/Temp.shp_
but got an error message that says it is not a directory. I tried
other paths but they were all unacceptable. Please advise. Thanks!

Yep, true - if your 'Temp.shp' is not a DIRECTORY within your
documents folder.
What you and I call "shapefiles" is actually a group of 3 or more
files that are needed by ESRI and other GIS products that use
'shapefile format'
For this reason you must specify the name of an existing directory,
and not a filename that you want to create.
Are you sure the "other paths" you tried existed and were actually
directory names?
HTH,
Zoltan
