Hi Hamish,

i tried your suggestion by opening grass and typing
the command straight on the Output GIS.m panel (lower
half of the panel) then RUN it;

v.in.ogr dsn=C:/ESRI/ESRIDATA/WORLD/CITIES.SHP
output=cities.grc

how will i open it now?..i was looking for the file
cities.grc but cant find it, was it automatically
saved on my default location or somewhere else? my
default dataset is Spearfish60 PERMANENT. wil i open
it using file/workspace/open or using
file/import/vector map???? ..im having difficulty with
this.  thanks a lot. 

Precy
