shrug-l: shapefile "type" is given by Windows explorer as "AutoCAD shape.." ??

Wed May 24 11:50:52 EDT 2006

When I view shapefiles in Microsoft Windows explorer, the type is showing as "AutoCAD shape source" or "AutoCAD compiled shape."  This corresponds with our having trouble with a couple shapefiles, but I have no idea at this point whether the two are related.  

  I also do not really know that Windows explorer has not always given the type as "AutoCAD..."  

  Can anyone shed light?

  Thanks very much, Trina
