Does anyone have "ENGINEERING.SHX" ?
 
I've looked on the web, but only found Asian language websites, and I can't seem to find a link to download it?
 
Thanks for any help,
Justin

This ENGINEERING.SHX file your looking for.  Just curious did the dwg your have to have this for come from another company?  If so you can call and ask them for the .SHX file.  When I create special line types using shape files I have to send the shape file along with it's associate files, .SHX and my line type file so people can see the specific linetypes I have created.  Without these the line just comes in as a default cont line.

Thanks for your reply, I did ask the company for the file, but they don't have it either - they just accept the substitution. I just want to see what the original text was supposed to look like. I was hoping someone had it easilly accessible.
