Thanks for sharing that Randy. I'll have to check it out tomorrow to see if it will work. I'll report back here!

Yeah, that happens. You will need to now symbolize the feature based on 'unique values, many fileds', likely. Drawing a layer using categories—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop

Try this, expand your layer in the table of contents (click on the little plus sign), then right click on the square that shows your symbol (in your case it will likely be a green box that's white in the middle). Then choose a new color from the color list that drops down. If that doesn't work, open your symbology dialog (symbol selector), click on Edit Symbol, and change the color in there. If there are still issues, please post a screenshot of what you see in your symbol selector.

Can you post a screenshot of your symbology dialog? I don't have arcmap open right now and can't remember where all the drill downs were for changing things deeper than surface level.

I have been under the impression that this answer is always no. I once asked an Esri admin, and this was their answer to me: There is not a way to change your username. It’s linked to your Esri Account. You can create a new account and have this one deactivated, but your points and activity wouldn’t be transferred over.

Hmmm, that gave me the same error. Details: both fields are text fields and contain numbers. ownership_number are normally 3 digit numbers that sometimes contain a letter. Examples are 100, 101, 102, 102B, etc. Layer has the same three digit numbers with additional info usually in the case of colons. So, examples: 100:E 100:PUE, 101:ST, etc. I just want this SQL query to work so I can modify it to narrow down my search, etc. (finding where these numbers do not match). Thanks for your help! (Bonus, does it matter that one text field is 255 characters long and the other is 8000 characters?)

I'm trying to write a simple SQL query that just isn't working. I have two fields in my file geodatabase layer (ArcGIS Pro 2.3) and I want to select the records that match my simple SQL query of: written out to LEFT(Layer,3) = OWNERSHIP_NUMBER But I get an error saying that "The SQL expression has invalid syntax". I must be doing it wrong somewhere but I don't know where. These are both FIELDS and not RECORDS, so that likely makes a difference in how my syntax is supposed to be written. Looking up this article: SQL reference for query expressions used in ArcGIS—ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Desktop it says " String functions can be used to format strings. For instance, the LEFT function would return a certain number of characters starting on the left of the string. In this example, the query would return all states starting with the letter A: LEFT(STATE_NAME,1) = 'A' " So, it makes me think my syntax is mostly right since both of my fields are strings. Any advice on making my SQL query syntax work?

Good question. For my splitting, it is the Split tool that is in my Edit ribbon I do not have split policies set up (and didn't know they existed until you shared that article!). So, my feature class should behave as the "default value". The default value says: Default value—The attributes of the two resulting features take on the default value for the attribute of the given feature class or subtype. If there is not default value, I suppose that it must be "null".... That's rather a pain. I want my splitting to go back to how things were in 2.2 and prior, which is apparently "duplicate value" Duplicate—The attribute of the two resulting features takes on a copy of the original object's attribute value. Now, I guess I need to figure out where to set my splitting policies. I did not see how to do so in a quick glance in the Settings, so I'll keep looking around. But, I guess this is likely the answer
