I've barely used modelbuilder....So I'm trying something new to me. I have a layer with a text field (with words, not numbers), with around 30,000 records. I want to remove duplicates and just leave the unique values in a new table, which leaves about 29,000 records when I do it manually (right-click on field header in attribute table & summarize). Anyone know if this is possible in modelbuilder? I'm striking out.
Here are are a few tools that may work for you:
Hope this helps you out!
Thanks for your reply Curt. For whatever reason, I couldn't figure out the Summary Statistics tool option. It doesn't seem to operate the same as right-click/summarize--admittedly, I've never used this tool.
What I ended up doing, was using the Dissolve tool. My layer is a polygon layer, and dissolve worked well to get unique attribute values into their own records.
Dissolve - I didn't think of that!
Summary Statistics is entirely equivalent to the ArcMap right click summarize (with more functionality, including multiple case items). Note that in ArcGIS Pro, a right click summarize there opens the Summary Statistics tool.
Good to know, thanks!
