Thanks for your interest in my problem. I solved it an hour or so after
posting my message. I converted the data to csv format and also created
a csvt file. But most importantly, I deselected the shapefile layer
(i.e. I removed the tick in the box). The field I wanted to display
became visible then. As the thing to do, it's incredibly obvious now,
but was not obvious when I was studying the tutorial material.
