[Qgis-user] ArcGIS 10 and QGIS 1.7

[Christine Schmidt]

hi,

thanks for your replies.
I remember a post in a QGIS forum rather than in this list to deal with that subject. But I could not find this thread any more. So, it's not only an assumption why I posted this question in the list, but I could not verify the circumstances and details of  the original thread any more

Well, if that's not a known problem, I will have to try it on my own. Have already created an image of my harddisk, so I might roll back to a working QGIS 1.7 version in a bad case. 

Christine
