  • 1.  Error Exporting Polygon to ESRI Shapefile

    Hi,

    I'm trying to export a polygon object to a ESRI Shapefile, however when I do so I get the following Error:

    It exports fine when I use a GeoJSON, and I've restarted MapInfo to no result. Am I missing anything?

    You state that you are exporting a polygon object but the export log states you are exporting 3 records.

    I wonder if the export fails because some of the records do not have a spatial object.

    Hi Roman

    You may want to check that the table has been "packed".  If it hasn't, that could also explain why it has 3 records and you mention you are only trying to export 1 polygon.

    Worth checking because I have found this issue when I have tried to export a non-packed table to ESRI shapefile.
