To all, Currently, I have old datasets(shapefiles) that contain a plant code # field in the attributes table. I have successfully merged in a table with spp. names to correspond with the plant code #'s. During this process my attribute data is resorted and I lose continuity with other attribute data. (I'm using the (sp) and (maptools) libraries to execute read/write Poly/Point shape functions.) While merging, how do you maintain continuity between all of the other fields in your attributes table?
