I presume you mean the "TIGER_2006_SE" directory, which is really the latest and greatest. The ones in TIGER2006 only contain polyline data, and aren't named by county, but by FIPS number. > I've got them working and I've tweaked the dbfawk the way I want it pretty > well. But I have a number of questions/issues. The zip files contain both polyline and polygon shapefiles. They contain different features, and are rendered using different dbfawk files. The ones in the Polylines directory are roads and such, the ones in the Polygons directory are the ones that could be filled. The polylines use tgr2shp.dbfawk and the polygons use tgr2shppoly.dbfawk.
