    Is there anybody willing to help me with a way to correctly export ESRI ArcGIS shapefiles in the correct format for use in MPC 8.3 to compile a unlicensed transparent layer Garmin map. Everything works well, my current shapefiles do compile without errors in MPC 8.3 but because my shape files are probably not in the correct format I do not have any correct labelling of my data on my map. Is looks like the points, lines and polygons data do not have any type format assigned to them. I also cannot use GPSMapEdit 2.1 nor MicroGISEditor because both these editors require licencing for that particular function to work in them and I currently do not have the funds for that. Is there may be a way one could format the shapefiles directly in ESRI ArcGIS or may be Global Mapper. I do have fully licenced versions of these two programs. Any help with this will be highly appreciated.

    There are other free mapping software that can manipulate the SHP file namely:
    QGIS, DIVA-GIS. or you can use the old ESRI ArcView 3.x
