Hi Tom, QGIS uses the OGR library to read and (optionally) write certain data formats. See this table: http://www.gdal.org/ogr_formats.html As you can read here: http://www.gdal.org/drv_avcbin.html and http://www.gdal.org/drv_avce00.html this format is read only for OGR, meaning it is also read-only for QGIS. If you save this in another format (eg shapefile, or put it in Postgis) then you can edit it. But you will need Esri software to write that back to coverages I think ...
