I have exported some data to a shape file. When the data comes in, the shape file has the field called "layer" that I want to rename to "owner"....How in the world do I do that? Thanks for any help you can give.
You can't. Add a new field named "owner", calc owner = layer, and then delete the layer attribute field. Shapefiles are lightweight and great but have some constraints. Renaming or reordering fields is one of them.
