[Qgis-user] [Qgis-user} Editing the attribute table

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Jean,

Yes - sorry. I only read that after I sent my email. Good that a
solution exists. How does table manager handle this? Does it put the
renamed columns at the end of the columns.

I remember a discussion that older OGR versions did not support renaming
of columns - and as QGIS sometime has to support older OGR versions
there are problems.

Than there is the problem that not all data providers allow
adding/deleting/renaming columns. I don't know how table manager handles
this? Does it work with all formats or just shape files?

Often people forget that the GIS world is not shape files only.
