I have point data that has around 20 attributes. I calculated an additional field in the attribute table that changes a "distance to nearest field" variable to be per 500 meters.
However, when I am trying to use it either in OLS or GWR, the field is not showing up under the potential "Explanatory variables."
What do I need to do so that my new attribute shows up in the "Explanatory Variables" field.

Hey everyone,
So I am actually going to answer my own question. The attribute that I added was created as a text variable, not a numeric variable, as I created the field from the calculate field option.
To get around this, I added a field that was float and numeric. Then used the calculate field option to divide the distance variable by 500. That solved the issue, and here is the resource I found.
