I'm not sure whether you need a license for that number of features but it has been working fine for me with the free unlicensed version for smaller line splitting tasks - probably worth looking into at least. </SPAN><A href="http://www.ian-ko.com/">http://www.ian-ko.com/</A><BR /><BR /><SPAN>All the best,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Bex</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 26 Jun 2013 12:57:59 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-statistics-questions/dividing-polyline-featureclass/m-p/666375#M2160 RebeccaRoss 2013-06-26T12:57:59Z
