Just finished the Python web class, and I???m stuck....
I have a Feature Class with a table joined to it.
If I use ArcMap to manually export the FC to a shapefile (TOC --> right-click FC --> Data --> Export Data) I get a new file with the new fields all having the names of the previously joined table fields (so, Owner, Care_Of, etc)
If I use any type of Python command (FeatureClassToFeatureClass_conversion, Project_management, Clip_analysis) in that same MXD the field names change to the name of the table they came from, followed by a number (so, ParcelJo_1, ParcelJo_2, etc)
What command am I missing to keep the original field names?
