        Apologies,
<br>I meant to change the subject, but forgot!! So here it is, with a 
<br>correct subject!
<br><br>I need a little help, I have being trying to create an Index for a 
<br>series of CAD drawings, they each have a extent bounding box, but its 
<br>broken into individual lines.
<br><br>I have so far succeeded in creating a shapefile for all of them, but my 
<br>problem is that what I have is several thousand open polylines instead 
<br>of box's. each polyline starts and ends in the same point, but I need 
<br>them to form polygons.
<br>The other thing is that the attribute data be preserved.
<br>Any help appreciated.
<br>Regards,
<br><br>Richard.
