Hi Don,
Thx for the reply . My requirement is something like this.
I have a file( i am calling it as CSV of my own format) with multiple entries , the sample format is given below
Description , Latitude1,Longitude1,Latitude2,Longitude2,Latitude3,Longitude3,Latitude4,Longitude4.
The sample data is as follows
xxx,20,30,20,31,21,31,21,30.
yyy,22,40,22,41,22,42,22,40.
i would like to create the polygon by joining the latitude4 , longitude4 with latitude1 and longitude1.
Now the requirement is i would like to convert all the entries present in this CSV to Shape file that will give me multiple polygons in a single shape file.
Your help is greatly needed.
Note :
My activities towards your reply were carried out as below :
I tried adding to OMGraphicList by reading the coordinates int a vector and adding to OMPoly , later OMPoly to OmGraphicList . At last exporting this to EsriShape file by EsriShapeExport . The file got created but the problem here is when i open the file from other applications like RSI ENVI or other shape file display applications , the message is coming to "Invalid Shape file Format" . But when the same file is opened on the openmap the shape layer is displayed But none of the opertations like (zooming / out , Navigation ) not happening.
Can you please look into if any problem in the EsriShapeExport Utility ( i just guess) or else should i do any settings from OMPoly before i export to Esri.
Pl help him out in this regard. Help is greatly appreciated.
