PROBLEM

When I use DBF files, no features are returned by the ArcIMS Spatial Server

Last Published: April 25, 2020

Description

When I use DBF files with my ArcIMS MapService, no features are returned by the ArcIMS Spatial Server.

Cause

There is a limit to the width of a field in DBF files. If the width is greater than 242 characters, no features are returned by the ArcIMS Spatial Server.

Solution or Workaround

Limit the field width to 242 characters when using DBF files with ArcIMS.
