Ben,

For 1) when you select some records in the map or attribute table click
the field calculator button in the attribute table ( last button I
think) and select the update selected records checkbox. You can the
enter you value in the expression area and it will be applied to all
the selected features.

Hi All,

A couple of questions re editing data in the attribute table:

1) Is it possible to add/change attribute data to multiple selected
items in one single operation (I'm presently selecting the items,
opening the attribute table, ticking show selected only, and then
manually pasting the relevant data into the row for each item)? Surely
there is a more intelligent way to do this?

2) Is there a "find and replace" tool that can be used to change
matching data to a new value when editing data in the attribute table?

3) The MultiEdit plugin (http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/MultiEdit/)
sounds like it may be helpful when editing data in the attribute table
but I haven't been able to install it (it doesn't appear in the list
of plugins in the plugin installer). How do I install this plugin?

Thanks for your help,

Ben
