Field names must start with a letter.įield names must not contain any spaces or special characters, except for the underscore character.įile names must not contain any special characters, except for the underscore character. If the data is on a local drive, try copying it to the root of the primary drive, for example, C.Ĭheck for illegal field names in the attribute table.įield names can only have 10 characters. If the data is on a network drive, copy it to a local drive. Try selecting all or a subset of the features and export the selected features to a new shapefile or feature class. Afterward, also try copying it back to a new shapefile. If bad geometry is reported, use the Repair Geometry tool.Īttempt to copy the data to a geodatabase. View the output table after execution.Īn empty table indicates that the tool found no bad geometry. Problems with the data are reported while the tool is executing or in the output table.
