Invalid Parameters

Question

ArcGIS Pro

I imported a standalone table with 11 objects (with X and Y coordinates) to ArcGIS. When I want to Display XY Data, fields X and Y become invalid. What shall I enter into these fields? They don't seem to take the coordinates from the table. Please see below, thanks

Make sure your input data is formatted properly. In the last line, you use a comma as decimal separator, making it 4 columns as opposed to 3.

You could start with saving the text file as a CSV (LectureTheaters.csv).

For X/Y Field parameters in Display XY Data, you need to choose (from dropdown) POINT_X and POINT_Y fields respectively.
