idea Dissolve and concatenate text fields into one field with order and deliminator in ArcGIS Pro Ideas https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/dissolve-and-concatenate-text-fields-into-one/idi-p/958487 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY>When dissolving features it is often useful to get a sumary of the fields. Despite the opportunity to do mathematical operations to number fields (SUM, MIN, MAX...) there is no way of concattenate text fields. This&nbsp; would be helpfull (e.g. when dissolving multiple points of soil information at the same location and different depths). Additionaly it would be great if its possible to determine a sorting field for the attributes to concatenate.<BR />There is a workaround of spatial-joining points to a polygon and to join text attributes with a deliminator, but no way of spatial joining points to points and no way to determine a joining order. &nbsp; <!-- content transformation source ID: 087E0000000fxc6 --> </BODY></HTML> Tue, 29 Sep 2015 07:08:56 GMT MarcoSchwarzak1 2015-09-29T07:08:56Z Dissolve and concatenate text fields into one field with order and deliminator https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/dissolve-and-concatenate-text-fields-into-one/idi-p/958487 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY>When dissolving features it is often useful to get a sumary of the fields.

I guess the issue is that you could potentially create a text value that is very long and what can be stored is dictated by the underlying format (e.g. shapefile vs. geodatabase) <!-- content transformation source ID: 00aE000000DxCrn --> </BODY></HTML> Wed, 30 Sep 2015 13:31:17 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/dissolve-and-concatenate-text-fields-into-one/idc-p/958488#M8127 DuncanHornby 2015-09-30T13:31:17Z Re: Dissolve and concatenate text fields into one field with order and deliminator https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/dissolve-and-concatenate-text-fields-into-one/idc-p/1146993#M18800 <P>I'm searching for the same problem at the moment.</P><P>I have different points with text that muyst be dissolved to a polygon.</P><P>Did you find the solution?</P> Wed, 23 Feb 2022 15:31:56 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/dissolve-and-concatenate-text-fields-into-one/idc-p/1146993#M18800 NicolasSoenens 2022-02-23T15:31:56Z
