9.3.1 Joining points to polygons

KeithTanner — Tue, 16 Dec 2014 18:05:50 GMT

I'm using 9.3.1, (at least until I finish this project) and have hit a snag. I'm trying to do a Join between a Geocoding Result and our subzone layer. I'm getting an error message:

Can't create output feature class.

The Field type is invalid or unsupported for the operation. [GLOBALID]

The field is not nullable.

I've gone into the Subzone layer and turned off the GLOBALID field, but still get the error. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Do you need the GLOBALID field in the resulting featureclass? If not, remove the field or make a copy of the featureclass and remove the field there.

THANKS Xander! That did the trick! I found how to go through ArcCatalog and remove the GLOBALID field. The join worked flawlessly after that. THANKS again!
