Hi Kory Kramer! Yes, I am using ArcMap, and I created the shapefile in ArcMap Although I have to access ArcMap through Citrix which is probably where the nightmare starts. There are seven different files for my shapefile. I first tried just opening the mxd that contained the shapefile/data by copying all the related files to Citrix's drive (I can't access my own computer's files through Citrix, and Citrix seems to wipe its drive after each session, so I had to copy my work to Citrix's drive to open them), but then it gives me this red exclamation point of death. I think school taught me that I just need to reconnect the source to HighStrengthWaste_Points to get it working again, but that didn't work. I got an error - So instead I tried to just re-add the shapefile which is how I got to the shapefile with no points or attribute table but a separate dbf. A lot of the issue may be with Citrix's drives and being unable to just directly connect to my computer's files. I can't drag anything directly from my computer files into ArcMap while it's being run through Citrix To be honest, this is what the content looks like in my computer files because of how Citrix was saving it while I was first making it - It's really confusing having so many versions of the same files instead of having them just replace their older versions. When I try to open the most recent shapefile HighStrengthWaste_Points (2).shp, I get the error below. I can add the older versions HighStrengthWaste_Points (1).shp and HighStrengthWaste_Points.shp, but they're empty. When I add the most recent dbf HighStrengthWaste_Points (6).dbf, it attaches to the (1) shapefile, but there's still no points or attribute table for the shapefile. Sorry that this got so complex, and thank you so much for replying! Don't stress yourself over my problem, I'll understand if you can't help!

Hello! I've attached a picture of my problem. I assume it's an easy fix, but I just can't find the solution online. My HighStrengthWaste_Points (.shp) has no points or attribute table! The actual data seems to be the DBF HighStrengthWaste_Points(6) under it. Is there a way to put them back together? Why did they separate in the first place when they were together when I created them? Or did I add the data incorrectly? Also, sorry if I'm doing this forum thing wrong. I only made this account to ask this one question and have never actually used these forums before. Recommendations on where else to go for help would also be very much appreciated.
