Domain values export

Question

I am working with ArcGIS 9.3. When I export any feture class (with coded domain) to dbf, domain description is not getting exported. I need the domain descriptions(instead of domain codes) need to be exported in the dbf file. How to do?

Hi Subramanian,

To avoid this issue in the ArcGIS, I make the code values the same as the description.

As workaround, you need to use “domain to table” and then join this table s with the exported dbf file

Hope this helps
