Does each of the shapefiles have a *.prj ? Maybe the monuments are
in some different CRS? Try to right-click on the monuments and
choose "Zoom to Layer".<br>
Just reaching at straws here...<br>

So you have 4 sets of shapefiles on two different computers. All 4
display as expected on one computer, but when they are copied over
to a different machine, one of the 4 does not display? And all the
components of all 4 shapefiles are identical on both machines?<br>
One machine is ubuntu, the other fedora 16, and both are running
QGIS 1.7.4. If that sums it up, then indeed there are some gremlins
at work here...<br>

I meant to say 1.7.4, sorry. The same version of QGIS is on both
machines.<br>

What do you mean by that? What works and what doesn't?<br>
Can you compare the copied files to the originals? (file
size at least)<br>
(BTW, you can get QGIS 1.7.4 on Fedora 16 now. Version 1.4
is quite old. What were you using on Ubuntu?)

Yes, Everything was copied over.<br>
<br>
When I first tried it the files were re
done. Then I redid everything again. <br>
<br>
All the required files are there. I had
one set of data which I did myself using
libreoffice which worked fine before and
even that has the same thing.<br>

Did you try to delete any rows in the dbf file
using LibreOffice?<br>
Do you still have the original shapefile that
worked?<br>
