[udig-users] Reshape...

[Silvia Franceschi <silvia.franceschi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
I am trying to use the reshape function in Udig.
I have a shapefile with some attributes and I want to add a column 
containing a String that I will fill manually later.
I tried to add the column but I can not find the way to add the column 
with a specific type of data without copying the values of an other column.
This are the original shapefile attributes:
the_geom=the_geom
area=area
perimetro=perimetro
netnum=netnum
quota=quota

And I want to add the attribute
basin=string

Is it possible to do something like this?

Usually I use OpenOffice for these type of problems but this shapefile 
seems to be not editable from open office, I can modify it but not 
save... and it is not a problem of permissions... I think this is a 
problem due to the way people writes shapefile... But I don't know.. :-)

Thanks in advance

Silvia
