I opened an illustrator path in C4D, and added an extrude nurbs to the spline. Now I have a "cookie cutter" type of object. How do I close the open holes to add sides to the object?
I've attached an image of what I have.

Thanks for the help!

In the attributes manager, just select "caps", and edit to your liking.

I have caps selected for start and end, but they don't show up.
Here's a link to the file:

the spline is probably not closed correctly.
Make sure you have 'close spline ' turned on in the object's attributes.

There is probably an overlapping point somewhere, make sure the last and first point dont't overlap.

You spline is not a continuous spline. It is composed of several individual segments.
Check out your Illustrator import preferences and make sure Connect Splines is turned on.
Closing your spline will not help out as it will try to close each individual segment.
