List,
A simple question for some I hope. In Arc View 3.3 I split a county
boundary into north and south halves (as .shps) and then clipped a
number of other basic shapefile spatial coverages into those north and
south halves for ease of layout creation. Just now I've discovered that
all index files (.shx) are missing from all the the newly clipped
coverages (preventing me from adding them as a theme) and maybe from
some other shapefiles I had in the same folder. Review of the AV manual
has not enlightened me.
What might have happened to make all of the .shx files disappear?
Is there any way to recover them for these shapes?
I can recreate the coverages but would like to learn how this happened
to prevent it from happening to me again.
Thanks to any help you can give to this poor biologist attempting to
make best use of GIS into his work
