Create a shape file on MATLAB to use it on ARCGIS

I have created a shape file on MATLAB by using the function shapewrite(S,filename) with S=geoshape(latitude_polygon,longitude_polygon).

However, when I want to open the file in ARCGIS, there is an error message saying: 'Error opening feature class'.

Does someone know why please?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I think it is not because of the shapefile generated in MATLAB but may be because there is at least one item that is supported in ArcInfo only, not in Arc. You can change the definition of the item to supported type with the help of ArcInfo command-line.
