[Qgis-user] Calculating acreage in 2.2

[Mike Hyslop]

Aaand I just tried again on a clean copy of the data. Same procedure. Same
results as you (19.53011 acres). No idea why I got 209 acres last time, but
the two copies of the shapefile appear identical.

Something is rotten in Denmark (oops. Michigan). Must be time to go home...
