Select Features on Map to View Attributes on Table

[LorenRadis]

Hi,

Very new to Esri products, I'm sure this is a simple question, thanks for your patience!

I've got a layer of structures that are placed on a map.  I have a standalone table of inspections that were performed on the structures in the first layer. 

There is one common shared attribute between the two layers.

I would like to select the structures on the map in order to view the associated inspections.  Is this possible, or would I need to map the inspections themselves onto the map to allow this behaviour?  Thanks,

-loren

Others may have a more thorough response for you, but to get you started:

I'm assuming you have your Feature Layer (structures) in the Contents Pane of your Map, and that you've Imported your standalone table (which should also appear in your Contents Pane.  

From there, it should be straightforward to use the Spatial Join tools; the output is a new Feature Class with the attributes from both your spatial dataset (structures) and your standalone table for inspections. 

Of course, the 'join' operation assumes perfect matches between the two datasets; all manner of things can throw this off (for instance, sometimes numbers are stored 'properly' as Integers in a database, but in a standalone table, a single row with a non-numeric character will cause the table-field to import as a 'Text').
