[Qgis-user] GDAL extension, filegdb, in QGIS

[john polo]

André,
Your suggestion:
"This site:
<http://www.northrivergeographic.com/qgis-using-esris-file-based-geodatabase>
suggests not to use the latest version 1.11 of filegdb, but 1.10.1-2
I have no filegdb to test it myself."

... worked perfectly for me.

Much obliged,
John
