Guys,<br><br>I know some time ago I was trying the ogr2ogr but ended up hitting a brick wall in the case where SHP's dbf reached its limit. Does this tool split the SHPs into small numbers? Since OS data is quite big, such a feature would surely be helpful. <br>
<br>Good job on the util ;)<br><br>Matthew<br clear="all"><br><br><span style="font-weight:bold">Matthew Pulis</span> BSc. (Business and Computing) MSc. (Informatics)<br><span style="color:rgb(255, 102, 102)">web</span>:

Excellent. No, your code was clear and well-licensed :)<br>
We will try to add MasterMap styling for qgis plus export to PostGIS and<br>
other ogr format in near future, which is mostly qgis stuff.<br>
<br>
There are already plugins for exporting/importing QGIS styling to<br>
Mapserver .. maybe we can do it once for both Mapserver and QGIS?<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
