Hi There,
On trying conduct a point to poly anlysis I get this error when the apply function has been conducted there is a brief box which says - "dumping .txt file and then this error and the new layer is not created.
Can you advise please?
Thanks
Cath
error code:
If the error is still there and you think there is no way out then out for the http://support.microsoft.com/gp/hardware_device_problems and the 640-460 code to get rid from the problem. or click Troubleshoot to start the Troubleshooting Wizard to get rid from this problem.
point in polygon error
This happens when you select presence/absence and you have many species (or other classes). The problem is that each species becomes a variable, and a .dbf file is can only legally hold 128 variables. So, instead, diva writes the results to a text file (with the name you gave to the output shp file, but with extension .txt).
You can open it with a text editor such as notepad or excel. You probably do not really want a shapefile anyway. Or do you?
But that error message should not be there, it will be gone in the next version of DIVA.

Add on to point-to-polygon problems
Yes, I am having the same trouble as mentioned by the person to whom you responded with this message, but I am able to continue entering info as if I am going to go through with Point to Polygon. However, after I enter all the information and click apply I get an error message saying "Access violation at address 0062F3BE in module 'diva.exe'. Read of address 00000000."
It will save it as a shapefile, but an incomplete one, I don't even get a text file with the .txt extension. Are there older versions of DIVA I can download in order to complete this task? I know there was the capability to do this not too long ago.
I've attempted moving over to ArcGIS and using Hawth's Tools but I am unfamiliar with those extensions.
Please help ASAP.
It happens the same to me
It happens the same to me when I try to do the tutorial on wild potatoes. What should I do?
Thanks!
