Refresh attribute data?

[BrentW]

A very simple function that I'm sure I'm overlooking. I created/calculated a second column (Length) identical to Shape.Length, for my needs. I have edited the vertices of this feature (in green) but the length (94') hasn't updated when I've completed the operation. Is there a function I'm overlooking to refresh & update the data, or must I re-calculate the column all over again?

As your length attribute field is user created/managed, you'll need to run the Calculate Geometry Attributes GP tool on the field to get the latest values.  Unlike the Shape_Length field, it's not an automatic calculation.

Hey Robert, thank ya Sir! I was worried this would be my answer, as I don't know how it'll affect the spatial joins I have since doing this step, but if I must....I must. I appreciate you Sir!

[Robert_LeClair]

Certainly!  There is a way to make this automatic through the use of Calculation Attribute rules as described here.

THANK YOU for this additional help! I'm wanting to expand on my learning of calculation rules and Page Series/Queries the transmission maps I'm making more & more.
