Hello there. I am trying to clip two layers that have the matching column headings for my graduate project. I have a spreadsheet with lake numbers for lakes in Minnesota and a file from the MN DNR Deli that has all of the lake numbers from all of the lakes in the state of MN. Importing my spreadsheet gives me a point feature of my 1506 lakes from my spreadsheet. The file from the DNR has ~49,000 polygons of the lakes in MN.
The two layers lake_types (point) and watr_dnrpy2 (polygon) have the matching column heading DOWLKNUM. The lake_types layer has 1506 records while the watr_dnrpy2 has ~49,000 records. For the final product, I would like to have a layer with the 1506 lakes in polygon format. So in other words, out of the 49,000 records, I would like to match the DOWLKNUM heading and create a new layer with the 1506 lakes in polygon format. If anyone is able to help me with this function it would be much appreciated. I took screenshots of the attribute tables and can be found below. Thanks.
