I have tried to use a dbf but the calculate geometry tool is always grayed out. Even when I am in an editing session. I also have tried using a shapefile but when I calculate the geometry the values generated&nbsp; x,y state plane fields are the same as the lat long fields. HELP! PLEASE!</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 21 Dec 2018 15:50:46 GMT LenzaSmith 2018-12-21T15:50:46Z Converting lat long to state plane https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-data-science-questions/converting-lat-long-to-state-plane/m-p/559014#M1251 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>I need to convert a table of lat long points to state plane.
