Dan..Thanks for your response.. Here is the ouput on sample data using approach-2 (Frequency): FID Shape Id NEAR_FID NEAR_DIST ConID Rowid FID FREQUENCY NEAR_DIST * 0 Polygon 0 2 1716.566324 1 4 0 1            1716.566324 1 Polygon 0 4 1656.804153 1 3 0 1            1656.804153 2 Polygon 0 4 551.543298 2 1 0 2             551.543298 3 Polygon 0 4 602.992525 1 2 0 1              602.992525 4 Polygon 0 2 551.543298 2 1 0 2               551.543298 I will post the out put from approach-1 in a second.Any comments on the above output?? Thanks!\ ABDALLA ... View more

Dan.. All the three approaches have worked successfully and I got exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a lot for your help. I really appreciated. ABDALLA ... View more

Did you recive any of my email??????? ... View more

I just sent you the whole shapefile in three different emails.. Because of my limit, I couldn't it in one email..I hope you have recieved it..please let me know.. Thanks! ... View more

I just sent you sample data in your email..Let me know if you receive it.. Thanks.. ... View more

The buffer didn't work, because when I run the Near tool still getting zeros distance. Yes I'm using ArcMap 10.. I selected near distance with zero values and i will try to send you the layer in your email.. Thanks! ... View more

Dan..None of the above gave me the required result..I couldn't get the touching polygon to disconnect or aggregated in one polygon..Any hint? appreciated. ... View more

Yes I did but don't know if i did it right or not.I clicked on manage attachments and then I attached the file.. ... View more

Dan..Thanks for your message.The table below shows the polygons having near distance zeros. I also attached a file with this message showing sample of these polygons. It is true that some of the polygons are touching each other. I was trying to fix that by using the Dissolve tool, but didn't work well in getting rid of the touching. Also my data is projected in meters so no problem with that..Let me know. Thanks a lot!

Dan..  Thanks for your input..I have more than half a million records, and so deleting the zeros is not practical, Plus having zeros is an indication that there is something wrong going on. Because to my knowledge the Near distance shouldn't be zeros. There should be a distance between one polygon and another.. Don't know.. Thanks!.. ... View more

Okay..I have raster layer, and I wanted  first  to combine cells that are adjacent and diagonal. To do so , I used Region Group with option �??EIGHT�?� , �??CROSS�?� option for zone grouping method. Secondly, I wanted to derive the nearest distances for each polygon. So I converted the resulting raster to polygon. Then I used the NEAR tool to get the nearest distance. The problem is I'm getting Near distance with zeros values, which shouldn't be so. So the problem is how to get rid of these zeros, or my model might be from the beignning was wrong, don't know..Any hint on that..Appreciate... ... View more
