Hello everyone!
I'm having problems to add a field on my shape's attribute table. When i try to add a Double column, it should show the options "scale" and "precision" for me to fill, but it keeps showing the options "alias", "allow null values" and "default value". How can i change that?
Thank you for the help!
P.S.: I'm using ArcGIS 10.

yeah that's true. Sometimes old shapefile habits are hard to break!
But I i'm working with a shapefile, not a geodatabase...
shapefiles don't support alias

in geodatabase you can only change properties when the table is empty,

and shapefiles would be the same
