I keep getting an error box with the message, "Failed to Import Shapefile - Invalid Shapefile."
I misunderstood the zip note - I thought it had to be in a folder
I'm currently dealing with a similar issue with a point shapefile (1 point) where ArcExplorer seems to be trying to import it as a polygon. I keep getting an error saying that a polygon must have a certain number of rings or vertices to display. The error # is 24305.
Anyone encountered this? Other shapefiles have imported fine.
Hi - there's a few things that can prevent an import working - you must have all of the required files in the zipfile you import for example. There's a few tips at the bottom of the Import Shapefile help topic:
http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisexplorer/help/#/Import_a_shapefile/01560000005p000000/
I think the simplest way to figure this out would be if you can post your shapefile on the forum we can test it out.
