[Gvsig_english] gvsig and joins::what to do, if a join does not "work" 100 % - workaround...

[Wolfgang Qual]

Hi list,
as described before, I have to use addresses as a source for geocoding 
features, like physicians. In order to geocode them, I use a shapefile 
that contains all addresses of our City as target table.
The table to geocode is the source table. However, addresses of the 
source table may be spelled wrong every no and when and it is important 
to identify and correct those. Unfortunately, selecting those "broken" 
addresses in the joined table seemed to be useless, since the selection 
is removed when removing the join. BUT what you can do is the following:
1) select broken addresses in joined table
2) move selection on top
3) remove join
As the sorting of the table will not change, the broken addresses will 
remain where they were in step 2). Easy to correct them now (you just 
have to keep in mind the last record of the selection).
Hopefully, this workaround will also work in 2.0.

Best,
Wolfgang
