[Qgis-user] Table/Attribute joins

[Lee]

I've utilized the table join feature currently included in the 1.7 release.
I have a parcel ownership layer within a city environment. I have selected
some of these parcels and added them to a new shapefile. I'm attempting to
grab the data from the original parcel file and append it to the new
shapefile so I still have ownership information. When I do a table join
through properties, the information shows up in the attribute table... but
not in the .dbf file, nor can I edit it in the table editor plugin.
Therefore, I have no ability to edit how this information is displayed, or
print it along with a key. It seems the join only exists in the memory of
qgis, and it is never actually appended to the database file...

Any ideas?

all the best,
Lee
