<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>

<em>v.convert</em> converts GRASS 5.0/5.3/5.4 vectors into 5.7/6.x vectors.

<h2>NOTES</h2>

Vector maps from 5.0/5.3/5.4 and 5.7/6.x do not interfere. They are stored in different 
directories, so you can use the same names. Old vector maps can be listed with
<em>g.list oldvect</em>.
<P>
If you need to convert back from 5.7/6.x into the 5.0/5.3/5.4 vector format,
use <em>v.out.ogr</em> (to SHAPE format) and then <em>v.in.shape</em>
in the old GRASS program.
Alternatively use "<em>v.out.ascii -o</em>" and <em>v.in.ascii</em>.
<P>
As this GRASS version uses SQL for attribute management, there are
some <a href=sql.html>SQL restrictings concerning the file names</a>.


<h2>EXAMPLE</h2>

<b>v.convert in=</b><em>vectormap_from_50</em> <b>out=</b><em>vectormap_57</em>
