[GRASS-user] Vector file import formats

[Donovan Cameron]

Hey Rich, the .mxd files are project files for ESRI's ArcGIS and don't 
really contain any "data". They can be opened with ArcMap for example 
and are used to mostly conduct geospatial analysis and map production.

The other files you have, .mdb may contain the spatial data but I think 
that data cannot be converted or extracted from within grass unless GDAL 
has been built with .mdb support [1][2].
