I'm trying to export areas to a shapefile with no luck.  The areas were
created using v.voronoi, and I can view them just fine in GRASS, but
when I attempt the export it doesn't seem to be actually creating any
files.  It does say 407 features written.  I'm using GRASS 6.2 on windows.

When the "dsn" specifies a folder that doesn't exist does it go on to
create the folder?  In this case the folder "export" doesn't exist.  I'm
guessing that it doesn't create the folder because it'd not there once
the export is complete.  Maybe my syntax is completely wrong, but I just
can't get this to work (or find the file if it is working...)

The command I'm running:
v.out.ogr input=Samples_Vor type=area dsn=/export olayer=samples_vor_exp
layer=1 format=ESRI_Shapefile

Any help you guys can offer would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks,

Andrew Schroeder
