Micha,

Wait. Why does db.out.ogr allow the output file to be another database? How
often would someone want to do this?

Related question: the format option is required, but to the input or output?
Look at the first example. It has an input and output but no format.


Your input would be an existing GRASS vector. But it could be any other OGR accessible data table, I suppose.

The default output format is CSV, if you don't specify anything else. But it could be several others: DBF, GML, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite.



I've not before used db.out.ogr so you've taught ma a lot.

Best regards,

Rich
