Dear everyone,

 

I am trying to combine 2 shapefiles (and second solution 1 shapefile + Excel file that contains 2 columns Lat and Long)

 

I would like to have a map with my polygone superposed with my points but when I try to add the points on the second empty map I have Lat Long tick in orange (I guess this is the cause of my problem)

 

I join  a screen

 

Any help would be much appreciated

 

Many thanks

 

Combining 2 shapefiles (Polygone & point) or 1 shapefile polygone & Excel contains Lat/Long

    Hello Patrice,

    If you have orange tick marks then it's likely you're data blending.  I would only use data blending as a last resort.  Without a workbook, it's further difficult to determine what else might be the issue. 

     

    You should be using a JOIN between your two data sets in the Data Source of the workbook.  There are several examples of how to do this on Sarah Battersby's blog:  Dual Axis Mapping - Many Ways 

     

    If this answers your question please mark it as correct so that others may find it in their search for a solution in the future.  Best, Don
