Hi,

 

 

I am trying to build a workbench that transforms SHP data to DGN files. I have a huge amount of shp files, each one with the same attributes. Despite this, in some cases the width of char type Attribute "ID" is not the same. Mostly width is 20, but in some cases I cannot predict this value.

Right now I have an issue when the ID width is not 20, because shp reader is defined this way and I get an error.

I would use a single workbench for all SHPS. How to make reader accept multiple ID width values?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best regards,

Pol
