When I created a staff list for tracking hours on a field project, I wanted to use the selection from the list of names to then make two further questions visible. According to Esri Support, this is not possible. The relevance statement can do mathematical expressions and key off simple responses such as yes/no. However, it does not have the ability to setup a cascade response if any name is picked from the list. To me this would be solved by adding a wildcard ability to use for the trigger in the relevant statement setup.

KKramer-esristaff‌ - we have communicated direct but I wanted to reply here for anyone reviewing this post content. Thanks for reaching out to dig deeper into this issue. I have made a habit of submitting the crash reports with Pro. Sometimes I do get a little emotional in the description, depending on my frustration level at that moment! However, I do try to give an overview of what was occurring when the issue occurred. Thanks for the two links above regarding the Locate function. Those have been visited and voted up. Knowing that someone at Esri is actively looking at comments, ideas, and discussion (and responding) - I will challenge myself to do better in providing neutral feedback as much as I can. New product roll-out is always a challenge. My goal is to be a contributor to the solution, not just another negative commentator.

Thanks for the reaffirmation, Rick. I was excited about Pro initially. However, it continues to disappoint at every turn. There are some good/cool things, but the negatives far outweigh the positive. Case in point from yesterday. The Pro app crashed 4 times just trying to save a domain update. It seems every time I try a new tool, there are 3-4 crashes that take place. Very frustrating.

Thanks Dan! GeoNet sometimes confuses me almost as much at Pro. I guess my emotionally disguised question was - am I doing something wrong or looking in the wrong place? All good though.

As much as I try to like, work, and slowly adopt ArcGIS Pro - it continues to disappoint. In ArcMap, I can click on a binocular icon and search all visible layers with no configuration on my part. I'm able to quickly find a street in a local layer or a REST service that exists in my map and simply zoom to that location. It took 15 minutes to use the binocular icon in ArcGIS Pro just to get to a list that I had to pick through to find the correct location. Someone check my work flow here - but I'm now required to add the layer to the Locate tool that I want to search, configure each attribute to an equals or contains, then check and uncheck each layer I want to use for the search, and finally zoom to a number of results just to get close to where I want to be??? In this instance, I wanted to find a street called Joyce using a REST service from our P&Z. In ArcMap I can type "Joyce" and see a results list of Joyce Drive, Joyce Court, Joyce Circle, etc. In Pro, I get 12 results with just "Joyce", requiring me to click through 5 just to get to Joyce Circle. Sure - I could type Joyce Circle. But I DIDN'T have too before - and I liked it! Change is not a problem with me. I was excited about Pro. However, when users have to continually cry out for simple tools we are used to using - the product is a no-go.

Advising the results of the latest version - success. It changed the long integer field with no issues. Thanks again for figuring this out!

You are the man, LR! Thanks for taking the time to do this. Will give it a whirl in a bit and advise results.

Myth - Confirmed. This took about 30 seconds or less to accomplish in ArcMap. With the same data. If anyone from Esri is following this conversation, I would recommend changing the status of this string. It is showing Assumed Answered. From my perspective, it's not. Thanks!

I would sincerely appreciate it. This is interesting, as I'm pretty sure I've had no problems replacing numbers in ArcMap regardless of field type. (I could be wrong. Going to test to see.) But this appears to be another easy tool, gone bad in Pro.

The data being used was downloaded from a resource website. In checking on this, yes - the field is a Long, numeric format.

Here is a screenshot of my results. I'm not smart enough to cipher through the error message. However, I recognize some similar notation to my attempts with the manual input. Thoughts? Much appreciated!

Thanks for taking the time to do that! I will pull the model down and see what happens. I made changes with quotations, spaces, commas, etc. with no success over the weekend. Hopefully, this will point out what I was missing.

Over the weekend I spent a considerable amount of time trying to use the code block above. Very frustrating when it doesn't work. I don't appreciate Esri forcing users to become Python scripting gurus. There is NO reason the same SIMPLE tool found in ArcMap shouldn't have been part of first release of ArcGIS Pro. Especially if they are taking Catalog away as a separate interface to work with data.

There was a hydrant inspection, pre-configured setup. I don't recall one for flushing (though there could be!). We have setup our own system flushing Collector ability, using a related table to archive our flush activities. Happy to provide any information if needed.

Not sure why this hasn't been done yet? Just a check box to save the configuration for reapplication? Very painful for consistency of layer information across multiple maps.
