System.FormatExecption when reading the file

[Audionysos]

Hi, I have a problem reading the file. I'm loading map from shapefile using DotSpatial, but the .dbf file contains some fields encoded in code page that cannot be read by the library, so I wanted to use your library to read those fields. However I get an exception when trying to read the file:

dbf.Read(); gives me:

System.FormatException: 'Input string was not in a correct format.'

The path is good, I'm using the same path with File.ReadAllText()
I can open the file in OpenOffice correctly using UTF-8.
I've tried to set encoding in Dbf constructor but it's the same.

You can download the files HERE

Hi. In you dbf file existing Field Type - Float, is not supported, change Filed Type to Numeric.
