Comment (by hamish):

 hmm, there is still a quoting bug in v.to.db called by v.db.addtable:


 {{{
 Reading features...
  100%
 and: no such driver available
 WARNING: unable to start driver <and>
 ERROR: Unable to open database <C:\Documents> by driver <and>
 }}}

 (the mapset is in C:\Documents and Settings\)


 ah, here we go: Line 634 of lib/vector/Vlib/field.c scanning the dbln file
 does not like spaces in the db path string-

 {{{
   ndef = sscanf(buf, "%s %s %s %s %s", fldstr, tab, col, db, drv);
 }}}
