Hi Ed,
I removed the point and also restricted my query to just pull 3 or 4
records that looked good, but no luck. It's strange that ESRI can view the
shapes fine but other products like OpenEV and mapserverWorkbench can't.
I'm thinking something in the format of the file is off so will start
looking in that direction i guess.
thanks in any case,
Paul
