<p>I have shapefile a and shapefile b of same entity type (point) . I would like to merger them into one shapefile , i.e all points of shapefile b should come into shapefile a. I have tried it by modifying the example codes of idlffshape but it gives me an error ''Invalid Attribute record structure. The structure type must match the type." when i try to add the attributes to shapefile a from shapefile b. </p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p> </p>

Hello Dhyey, Did you solve your problem with the shapefiles? I'm reading your post because I have the same problem and I don't know how to solve it. In fact, I don't understand how can I modify the example code of idlffshape....Can you help me, please? Thanks!

David, thank you for your support. But my problem is a bit different because: 1. I have already created several shapefiles (.shp) and I want to joint them in a unique shapefile. How can I implement this in idlffdhape? The example shows me how to generate shapefiles from an unique .txt file :( 2. I need this routine will run automatically, because I have more than 1000 individual shapefiles to join. So the routine can't ask me every time which shapefile I want to introduce, with a dialog box. How can I solve this? Please, I get stuck :( Thank you!!
