I get this dialog: https://photos.app.goo.gl/kUtkF8R1FdsBZTNW7 If I choose any of the :Geometry Type" options the file is added but not points are not displayed. The data source is here: https://data.wvgis.wvu.edu/pub/Clearinghouse/location/populatedPlaces_USGS_198105_utm83_shp.zip Maybe you are confusing between creating a new layer and adding an existing layer?? What must be done to add this data to the project? FYI - with the newer versions of QGIS you can "drag and drop" a zip file that contains all the components of a shapefile right onto the map canvas. QGIS knows how to open the zip internally. Thanks, WV-Mike -- Micha Silver Ben Gurion Univ. Sde Boker, Remote Sensing Lab cell: +972-523-665918
