The TIGER file has a GeoID as a string so I need to bring it in as a string. But it comes in as an int! I put it in double quotes the double quotes show up in the fields! I try to create a new field that converts from block group to Long but it fails! This is so frustrating!</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 01 May 2020 22:00:59 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/how-do-i-import-geoid-as-string-from-csv/m-p/748579#M32777 SteveScott1 2020-05-01T22:00:59Z Re: How do I import GEOID as string from CSV? https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/how-do-i-import-geoid-as-string-from-csv/m-p/748580#M32778 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi, I'm not sure what GeoID and TIGER are but have you tried Double as a format?
