Re: [Qgis-developer] Spatialite ’select’ statement as vector layer in QGIS

[Noli Sicad]

Hi Ricardo,

Can you make your plugin available for download or included in the
plugin repository?

I like to try it!

BTW, there is Shapefile 'select' statement plugin [1] as vector layer
in QGIS in MMGIS plugin. It works quite well.

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Noli
