Andreas,
I agree with you. I actually have postgresql installed on my mac.
But this would just be a temporary vector file (an input to a
satellite classification). So I am looking (if there are) ways just
to make it usable for now. I might consider postgis if all quick and
dirty efforts would be fruitless
AFAIK, you can change the max number of rows in gnumeric (at least in
recent versions) by recompiling.

With this many records I would seriously consider moving to a professional
database, such as PostgreSQL/Postgis or Oracle Spatial. Both should run on a
Mac. Postgis is of course easier to install and maintain than Oracle. It is
also cheaper.

Just finished installing macports gnumeric and it does have the 65K row

Thanks for that tip. I'm installing from macports now.
But I read somewhere that: GNUmeric could accept more than 256 columns
and more of 65000 rows (needs to be re-compiled)

Hi,
My usual workflow is like this:
All my vectors are in GRASS database and I view them with QGIS.
For editing vector attributes, I basically browse the GRASS vectors in
QGIS then edit the dbf attributes with OpenOffice calc or base.
So far so good. This time I have a vector with more than 100K
records. Editing with calc is not possible (hitting the limit of 65K
rows) and its painstakingly slow in OO base.
Can you use Gnumeric? It's faster and limitless :-) ...ok, maybe no
limitless but reads bigger files than OOo
I'm looking for ways to speed things up. I cannot find a decent dbf
editor for mac. Any ideas?
cheers,
maning
