importing DLG elevation files

[Helena Voinov]

Hi

I've got some problem while importing DLG elevation file.

 DLG Hypsography file has 4 attributes for each line so I've needed to 
create multiple attribute file as an option of v.import with base for 
multiple attributes=1. This file  was created but is additional to the 
regular dig_att files and is not linked to the imported vector file. 
As a result each line has the internal ID number as an attribute 
instead of needed elevation value. Besides when I tried to run 
v.reclass to change these attributes I've got the response that there 
is no category support for my vector file - nothing is residing in a 
dig_cats folder. 
 It would be great if somebody can answer these questions: How to 
assign the right attributes to the lines and How to create the 
category support in this case?

Thanks a lot
