I am a total newbie to arcpy and I am having trouble finding good examples of joining an excel worksheet to a shapefile.
Basically what I am trying to do it join an excel worksheet with ZIP Code data to a ZIP code shapefile (only keeping matching records). Once joined I want to export it as a new layer.
I've been doing this by hand for a year now and would like to find a good way to automate this procedure.
Thank you in advance!
