Hi,
If you figured it out, then we did not lose any time. I will bug you when I have problems with ArcMap!
Cheers.

> I found that the problem was the conversion of the CRS. When I select the shape of the town (Lambert 72) in QGIS Browser and choose WGS 84 as CRS the extent is still in Lambert coordinates. I tried the same in ArcMap and there I got the same result. Then I tried a function in the toolbox under Data Management > Projections and Transformations > Project where you can choose the CRS and also the transformation algorithm. Then the shape of the town was shown in the right spot. I wonder if there is such a tool in QGIS.

> Are you running the latest Qgis 2.16? If so, vector tool should be in the processing toolbox and not in the vector menu. I have only worked one day with 2.16 but it was long enough to see that it needed a complete removal of all previous versions as the menu had a mixe of the old and the new version. After that, vector tools disappeared from the vector menu and reappeared in the new processing menu. I had read about this in a French blog so I was expecting it. Could this be the cause of your problem?
