    A customer has posed the following question: Error is Assertion failed!Programs:....File: shpopen.cLine 928Expression: psObject -> nSHPType==psSHP -> nShapeType ||psObject->nSHPType==SHPT_NULL I am reading in shapefiles (they are large ssurgo soils for US states) and writing out a new shapefile with a subsample of the shapes, the code works great for smaller states, but fails when there are say over ~1 million shapes. Is there a size limit and if so can you remove the size limit?

    Looking at ESRI's website, it appears that there is a 2GB limit to shapefiles that you might be encountering: http://support.esri.com/f...rticles/detail/37447 You may need to break the output file into a few files to avoid this issue.
