Mike, you can style points (lines, polygons) according to an attribute
value, no need for separating them by layers.

In Layer Properties > Symbology screen three is a drop-down at the top that
lets you do all kinds of selective symbolization.

Probably in your case you want to use Categorized.  Then you would select
an attribute value in the Value field.  You can classify as well, for
instance if you have a continuous attribute that you want to turn into
discrete classes.
