Context menu of your shapefile > properties > choose Tab "Symbology" > select "Categorize" in the first line with the attribute for the name of the geologic formation as the value in the second line. Click on "Classify" and style your polygons as appropriate.

Betreff: [Qgis-user] polygon fills from different shapefiles
i have four different geologic maps that i have imported as shapefiles. The files have filled polygons that have the name of the geologic formation in the attribute tables. i would like to have a common colour for each polygon of identical age/name for all the map sheets. Each map sheet has a similar list of formations, but some of the formations are different for each map sheet.

Should i add a column in each attribute table and put a formation code in for each one manually or can i add an RGB colour for each formation in the attribute table? or, do i need to categorize and classify these in the layer properties table after i have added formation code in the attribute table?
i hope that my question is clear.
