I ve loaded my shape files in ArcView, I ve turned on all the layers and I don t see any text or labels. Why not?
You re probably expecting to see what ESRI refers to as, “annotation.” Unfortunately, at this time, ArcView does not support annotation and therefore, no default text appears on the map. You can, however, create labels from point, line and polygon attributes. Look in the RRC “Digital Map Manual” for point, line and polygon attributes. For more information on labeling, look in the ArcView Help under “labeling.
