After using Multipart To Singlepart to break your polylines into singlepart lines, you can try Unsplit Line tool, which "Merges lines that have coincident endpoints and, optionally, common attribute values".</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 22 Jun 2011 21:45:09 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/how-to-make-a-one-part-polyline-from-a-multipart/m-p/491821#M27950 DanLee 2011-06-22T21:45:09Z Re: How to make a one part polyline from a multipart polyline? https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/how-to-make-a-one-part-polyline-from-a-multipart/m-p/491822#M27951 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>It worked!

I have proposed an enhancement - to allow a flow direction, e.g. increasing or decreasing M or Z values. Hope it gets implemented in a future release.&nbsp; <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":slightly_smiling_face:">🙂</span></SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Best regards,</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 28 Jun 2011 15:45:56 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/how-to-make-a-one-part-polyline-from-a-multipart/m-p/491823#M27952 DanLee 2011-06-28T15:45:56Z
