[Qgis-user] How to assign geographical objects to records and find records that have no geographical object

[Randal Hale]

One way to go about doing it is to make a shapefile and place a point. 
Make sure that point has an attribute that relates to your table.

  * You table has a record field so your shapefile has a record field.
  * record 1 corresponds to point 1

If you add data to QGIS and Right click on it (in the layers window) you 
can open the properties. From there you can Join (7 menu items down on 
the left) data together.

I hope that helps some.
