[Gvsig_english] QUESTION gvSIG 1.9 (BN 1253) -- Can you automatically split a vector layer based on an attribute in a field?

[Benjamin Ducke]

SEXTANTE has a tool "Separate entities" in its vector
layers toolbox that does exactly what you are looking for.

Cheers,

Ben

Hi, 


I have a shapefile of points representing the known locations of 20-30 species. 



Is their any way I can point a routine at a table field and have it create multiple shapefiles based on the values in this field, essentially creating separate shapefiles for each species?
