Description

Hi

I am having issues with the DBF file created using this code. It is read perfectly by https://www.dbfopener.com/
but when I check in QGIS only 1 row shows.
Importing the SHP into google earth pro works (as in the info window shows all the data that is in the dbf table).

SHP, DBF, etc in the attached zip file

Any ideas?
ShapeExport (3).zip

Research direction

Start by downloading the attached ShapeExport.3.zip and reproducing the problem in QGIS, then compare its DBF interpretation with dbfopener.com and Google Earth Pro. Trace the repository's DBF writer from the generated file back to the row-writing behavior; done means QGIS displays every DBF row from the supplied dataset.
