Convert Decimal Degrees to Degrees Minutes Seconds

[MikeMacRae]

Hello,

I have a field in a polyline feature class that gives me that azimuth of each line feature. The field is populated in decimal degrees. I need to convert them to degrees minutes seconds. I'm wondering if there is a way to field calculate this. Possible in a new field? Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,
Mike

If you are using ArcGIS Desktop (and not Explorer) and are at 10.1, the easiest thing to do would probably be to use the new Convert Coordinate Notation tool.

Thanks Lucas for posting that link to the tool.  Awesome to have that tool to use.

Mike, if you aren't on 10.1, here's a KB article that describes how to use the Field calculator - http://support.esri.com/en/knowledgebase/techarticles/detail/37264
