 {{{
 dsn=c:\
 }}}

 are you sure that you have write permission in c:\?

 I've tested this on my WinVista-box, v.out.ogr in c:\ fails also, but for
 example in dsn=C:\wd\testgrass v.out.ogr works.

 the behaviour of write permission in c:\ has changed from WinXP to
 WinVista/Win7.

 Please can you test v.out.ogr in C:\wd\testgrass or in an folder on
 another drive?

 best regards
 Helmut
