Greetings,
I am trying to use arcpy.da.SearchCursor to return a row, and get the extent (min, max).
I used the ESRI example: Use SQL TOP to limit the number of records to return.
# Use SQL TOP to sort field values
for row in arcpy.da.SearchCursor(fc, fields, sql_clause=('TOP 3', None)):
My code: gets an error at 'for row in arcpy.da...'
RuntimeError: Invalid SQL syntax [ERROR: syntax error at or near "3"??
Appreciate any pointers,
Regards,
Clive
for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in arcpy.da.Walk(workspace, topdown=True, datatype=data_type):
#datasets = [''] + datasets if datasets is not None else []
for filename in filenames:
#print(filename) ### Prints the path + name
fc_name = filename.split('.')[-1]
print(fc_name)
sc = arcpy.da.SearchCursor(r"D:\Users\me\db.sde\fc",["polygon"])
for row in sorted(arcpy.da.SearchCursor(sc, ["Shape@"], sql_clause=('TOP 1', None)):
print(row)
I get an error @
Hi Clive,
Is your database and SQL Server or MS Access database? TOP is only supported by SQL Server and MS Access databases.
Good call. The intertubes says the "SQLSTATE=42601" error is associated with IBM DB2.
