format now can be used with QGIS because gdal/ogr 1.9 apparently contains that
driver ..?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>So the question is whether I would e able
use a file geodatabase in a (if needed custom built ) QGIS when I would have a
gdal 1.9 compiled with file geodatabase support on my system or would there
need to be additional changes to the QGIS itself needed to enable this ?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
