splitting a polygon

[daveDurkin]

Hi - can anyone help please.  I have a polygon of the uk which I wish to split into two separate polygons by drawing an arbitrary polyline line across the uk polygon.  I have tried variously with split functions but don't seem to be able to find a solution.

Thanks......Dave

this is the tool, when you are in edit mode Splitting a polygon—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop

If this isn't working, then you will have to explain your situation in more detail
