<p>Hi,</p>
<p>You will find go documentation here
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/">https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/</a></p>
<p>go to Working with Vector Data (the .gdb file is vector data)
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/index.html">https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/index.html</a></p>
<p>You will want to make a query using the Query builder.</p>
<p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/vector_properties.html#query-builder">https://docs.qgis.org/3.16/en/docs/user_manual/working_with_vector/vector_properties.html#query-builder</a></p>
<p>If you use the query builder, you can select the items that you
want and then save the selection to a new file. (write click on
the layer and export selected feature). You can also filter a
file directly by using the same query but using the right click on
the file in the layer panel and select "filter".<br>
</p>
<p>You will probably need to save your data in a geopackage (.gpkg)
or shape (.shp) format as qgis can read but cannot write to .gdb
files. <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/openfilegdb.html">https://gdal.org/drivers/vector/openfilegdb.html</a></p>

<br>
<br>
I am a new user and new to the list. I am using QGIS version
3.12.2-București and have imported two .gdb files in QGIS and am
trying to figure out how to query the data and have it show me on
the map where it is located. I have been reading through the
documentation but not quite sure how to phrase my question to get
the answer I am looking for.
<br>
<br>
So far I can see my layers on the left hand side and I have been
trying to use the Expression String Builder to create a query but
I cannot figure out how to build a query that I can actually just
plug in one of the attributes and have it show on the map where it
is located. The data is of a county in Texas and I am trying to
find parcel IDs by either Prop_ID, GEO_ID, LEGAL_DESC, or
OWNER_NAME. I am not getting it...unfortunately.
<br>
<br>
If someone can tell me, what I should be searching on to find my
answer in SE, Google or the documentation, I will gladly go and
read up on how to do it, but just not sure how to phrase the
questions to get the answers.
<br>
<br>
Thanks for any help or guidance,
<br>
<br>
Jon
