Hi everyone,
I hope this is the right place to post this. I'm using the wonderful Pro Change Detector tool by @BruceHarold (hi!) and I'm trying to select "PIPSEC_ID" as my keyfield. Unfortunately, it seems like I can't select any fields of that data type (Double).
Does anybody have any insight into this? Is there a reason that I can't select a Double as my keyfield, and any way to change that? Or is it a limitation of the tool?
Thank you!
Declan
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi Declan, this is going wayyyyy (2010!) back but you should be able to use a double field in the detection set.
If you right click the tool and get its properties dialog open the parameters is an option to edit.

OMG! Thank you so much for the help, and for creating such an awesome tool! I have a Python script that runs it and uses its output to auto-generate a Report when we get new data. Still getting its use 13 years later 🙂.
Your quick and helpful response is infinitely appreciated!
To make it work I had to edit the Python to use hashlib and not md5, and change the case of arcpy.env.outputCoordinateSystem. I had more time back then, obviously....
I can certainly tell you put a lot of time into it. How the hash tables work are admittedly over my head, but what I do know is that it's incredibly fast 🚀
Looks like ArcPy doesn't like the Double. It's throwing a KeyError. I'm going to dig in and see if I can cast it to a Long.
