I have a trial version of ArcGis Desktop 10.1. How convert my .lyr file to .shp file in it?

Was it helpful?

Solution

If you are using ArcGIS ArcCatalog:

Go to Table of Contents, right click on .lyr, go to DATA and select Export TO option...Here you can save it in a .shp format.

If you are using ArcGIS ArcMap:

If you can load the layer file in ArcMap and the data is accessible, you should be able to right click on the layer in the Table of Contents and export as shapefile. Below image will help you:
