Hi community,

ArcMap is having problems registering that a field has both ones and zeros. The first picture below shows clearly that the field called SP01 has 0's and 1's. However, when I go to Symbology to map the 1's in a particular colour and the 0's in another colour, only zero shows in the range (see second picture).

Why is this? I have checked many times to make sure that the field SP01 is numeric. I have even changed all the 1's to 10's, but this didn't work either. I also made sure to validate the join between 'england_lsoa_2001' and the dataset below it - it is joined correctly.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi again,

For those of you confronting similar issues, I managed to solve the above issue by changing the name of the csv data file from 'Struggling places LSOAs (timepoints 1, 2, and 3).csv' to just 'Struggling places LSOAs.csv'...

Not sure quite why that loosened ArcMap up, but it did...

punctuation in the filename is usually a no-go.  Spaces will cause processes to fail often, but more likely when they are in the path to the file
