Its definitely a bug and Esri wont do anything about it.  I'm guessing its because in Pro this supposedly doesn't happen.  I wont switch to Pro because there are too many missing features still AND it has a learning curve.   ... View more

I've decided there isn't a simple way to do this.  It all has to do with the original data.  If each word was in a separate field, I could make this work and there is a way I could do that, but at some point, time spent building the script ends up taking more time than dealing with this manually.  The data creator is also doing me no favors by having little consistency in naming conventions and properly filling in all of the data.   UPDATE:  I've decided just to take over maintenance of this layer.  I have a good enough handle on the data, I can maintain the layer the way I want to.  The county will still handle my parcels and their data is still authoritative so I can still refer to it as needed.  Thanks Dan for trying to help, your ideas would work in most situations.   ...

I agree, just not sure how to keep the proper names unless I use an alternate table and join it as part of a script which may be the best option.  Maybe I can also use several concatenates in a string.   ... View more

Actually, one more question.  I've noticed that I have spaces in the file name and Chrome is inconsistent on how it handles the spaces My result: BITTLES'S 2ND ADDITION.tif url results: /BITTLES'S%202NDADDITION.tif I would have expected /BITTLES'S%202ND%20ADDITION.tif So, I'm guessing my results will be more consistent if I had a way to remove all spaces. ...

I also found another example that required pre-logic script code that worked: Pre-Logic Script Code:  a1 = LTrim( [Label] ) a2 = RTrim( a1 ) plat= a2&".tif" BUT, your example is much simpler.  It is what I will use in model builder as I will have to do this on a regular basis.  I get the feature class from the county and so I simply replace my previous version with the new version but have to run a model in order to get the information I want each time.  Thanks Dan! ...

I understand the desire for that but its incredibly confusing.  I'd suggest having a new post for every new version but reference the previous ones. ... View more

This thread is really hard to follow.  The post says it was created on February 2, 2018 but there are comments from 2017 on here.  I can't figure out what comments are based on the new information without reading the dates.  I'm not sure using the typical thread format for this is working very well. ...

People request this from me all of the time, I thought I would save a step and upload the documents here.  Is there a problem? ... View more

Did you try deleting your normal.mxt? It can be found in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\ESRI\Desktop<version>\ArcMap ... View more

That was an odd response.  I have always used the neatline, I wonder why the employee didn't think that was a normal function of map making.  I wonder if Esri seems to think we don't actually create maps anymore that are printed out.  Trust me, I still have to print out maps  A LOT!  Webmaps have plenty of good uses but when you are dealing with the public, many times you just have to push print. ...
