[Qgis-user] Newbie question - importing data in different formats

2011-12-12 Thread Roy Marsh
A very basic question I know, but I am getting frustrated at not being able to import data from various sources, even in formats that the user manual says are OK - e.g. with extensions GRD (GDAL) and E00 Is there a way to work around this? Alternatively, is there a (free or cheap) data translator
