Hi Patrick,
Thanks for your answer! That's quite annoying though, I assumed because I could import it directly into ArcGIS without any problems I would be able to with this program as well. I guess I'll just have to go with it!

You can store the paths when imported into different shapefiles and then set a style per shapefile, or multiple styles are possible in one shapefile using style rules.

I have a kml file I have created in Google earth containing lines of various lengths, thickness and colour. My problem is that when I import into QGIS (using add vector layer) it only imports the lines and not the thickness or the colour. I have used a free trial of ARCGIS to import this file without any problems, so I'm not sure why it would be an issue with this program.
