Antw: Re: [Qgis-user] Plotting XY data in QGIS

[Asmus Harder]

Hi Jim,
 
you can connect to an Access database (or other database too) with the
eVis-plugin, and display XY-data as an vector layer.

Hi Jim,

You can export the table from Access as a csv text file. Then you can 
use the QGIS delimited text plugin to import the CSV file and display 
the XY data.
