(See&nbsp;<A class="link-titled" href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/data-management/create-feature-class.htm" title="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/data-management/create-feature-class.htm">Create Feature Class—Data Management toolbox | Documentation</A>&nbsp;).&nbsp; Then use the&nbsp;<A href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/data-management/append.htm">append tool</A>&nbsp;to bring your source data into your new target using the feild mapping part of the tool that matches the input (source) fields to the output(target) fields.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 25 Mar 2020 13:38:43 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/esri-tutorials-questions/attribute-table-fields/m-p/296401#M104 JoeBorgione 2020-03-25T13:38:43Z
