Connect two nodes to form a path.

[PriyankaUchil]

Hi, I am pretty new to ArcGIS. I have to connect two nodes (points : FROM_NODE and TO_NODE) to make a path. The FROM_NODE and TO_NODE are available in a database. I'm basically looking to do something like this.

A routing script for the Processing toolbox | Free and Open Source GIS Ramblings‌

I have tried the PointToLine Feature in the Data Management Toolbox already, and it just connects all available points to each other, which is not my intention.

Would anybody be aware how I could go about this?

Thanks in advance!

This should be one of the easiest things to do, and yet it is such a pain in ArcGIS.

I have tried the following options:

1) ArcToolbox: XYToLine. It simply errors out.

2) Open source Python recipes that don't work.

I am not conversant with Python to write my own script. Could somebody please give me an answer on how to go about something so basic?
