Travis, Your shapefile is corrupt. Sound like someone may have edited the dbf by itself. Here are a couple of things to try. Try opening the shapefile in ArcView 3.x. It is more forgiving than ArcGIS. If you can get it to open then do a convert to shapefile. That will generate a new file that should work in ArcGIS. You might also wish to try Shapechk which I have attached here.

Hi Listers,
=20
I have an existing Shapefile for which I'm receiving the following error upon attempting to open it (add it to ArcView 9.1). I tried to just open the .dbf, but couldn't seem to read it for some reason.

ERROR opening feature class
Number of shapes does not match the number of table records

Has anyone encountered this before, and, is there a workaround/fix for it?

Thank you,
Travis
