Josh, I've since modified my data so the AddrPrimaryHighNo field is now a string, but for the following (when AddrPrimaryHighNo was a double): AddrPrimaryHighNo StreetPreDrctnAbbrev StreetName StreetSuffixAbbrev StreetPostDrctnAbbrev 1699 <Null> 220TH ST <Null> When I use: str(!AddrPrimaryHighNo!) + " " + str(!StreetPreDrctnAbbrev!) + " " + str(!StreetName!) + " " + str(!StreetSuffixAbbrev!) + " " + str(!StreetPostDrctnAbbrev!) I receive: 1699.0 None 220TH ST None So I may have not typed out the correct outcome in my original message, sorry about that. Thank you all for your quick replies and helpful information.  A coworker also pointed out there is a Concatenate Fields under Helpers in the Calculate Field geoprocessing window, which sets up a code block with a def, etc.   -Justin ...

The DBAs of our customer agency ended up using the delete/insert/update tables to create custom views for their analysis.  This worked out well and avoided the need to enable historical versioning or geodatabase archiving.  You are correct though to recommend leaving the underlying DBMS stuff alone, and thankfully so did this customer. ...

Biraja, Thanks, I had found that but had not realized this dataset contains two similar fields, 'OBJECTID_1' and 'OBJECTID'.  In this case OBJECTID_1 is the object identifier and the OBJECTID field is a text field leftover from geoprocessing.  But we're guessing this is the issue.  I have to wait until this evening when users are gone to release locks so I can delete and recreate the view.  (Deleting and recreating the view in SSMS alone doesn't fix it, because it still needs to be re-registered with the gdb in Arc.) Thanks for the help. Justin ... View more

Thanks Dan.  No, I haven't read those but will get to them this afternoon.  I'm marking this as Correct since this is likely the kind of info we're looking for.  We just haven't messed with Pro with regards to any of our automated scripting yet and are hesitant because we don't want to break anything.   ...

Thanks Jake.  What we actually found was far simpler.....we didn't have a Default User Type Role set.  Sigh... -Justin ... View more

Thanks Randy.  We have this as far as we need it for now, onto other things.  I added some comments to help us remember how it works next time we need it. # Note: usaddress module will need installed from https://github.com/datamade/usaddress #

Josh - A quick question for you as you have experience with the usaddress library.  I have things working like I want using usaddress.tag, but I'd also like to see what the output is using the usaddress.parse.  However, when I switch 'tag' to 'parse' in the code below (line 28), all of the records are returned as exceptions, placed in my output error table.  I tried removing commas from the 'addr' input address field values and that didn't make a difference.  Can the 'tag' and 'parse' methods not simply be interchanged like this?  Thanks Justin # Created by Justin Wolff 11/26/2018 # Note: usaddress module will need installed from https://github.com/datamade/usaddress import arcpy from arcpy import env import os import usaddress from collections import OrderedDict arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True # Get input table table = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0) # Get the field containing the single-line addresses infield = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1) # Get the output table for errors outErrors = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(2) # List of fields fields = ["OID@", "addr", "addrNum", "addrNumPre", "addrNumSuf", "buildNm", "corOf", "intSep", "lndMrkNm", "notAddr", "occTyp", "occId", "plcNm", "recip", "stNm", "strNm", "strNmPreDir", "strNmPreMod", "strNmPreTyp", "strNmPstDir", "strNmPstMod", "strNmPstTyp", "subAddrId", "subAddrTyp", "uspsBxGrpId", "uspsBxGrpTyp", "uspsBxId", "uspsBxTyp", "zip"] fields1 = ["addr", "oid"] with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(table, fields) as cursor:      for oid, addr, addrNum, addrNumPre, addrNumSuf, buildNm, corOf, intSep, lndMrkNm, notAddr, occTyp, occId, plcNm, recip, stNm, strNm, strNmPreDir, strNmPreMod, strNmPreTyp, strNmPstDir, strNmPstMod, strNmPstTyp, subAddrId, subAddrTyp, uspsBxGrpId, uspsBxGrpTyp, uspsBxId, uspsBxTyp, zip in cursor:           try:                method = usaddress.parse(addr)[0]                addrNum = method.get("AddressNumber", "")                addrNumPre = method.get("AddressNumberPrefix", "")                addrNumSuf = method.get("AddressNumberSuffix", "")                buildNm = method.get("BuildingName", "")                corOf = method.get("CornerOf", "")                intSep = method.get("IntersectionSeparator", "")                lndMrkNm = method.get("LandmarkName", "")                notAddr = method.get("NotAddress", "")                occTyp = method.get("OccupancyType", "")                occId = method.get("OccupancyIdentifier", "")                plcNm = method.get("PlaceName", "")                recip = method.get("Recipient", "")                stNm = method.get("StateName", "")                strNm = method.get("StreetName", "")                strNmPreDir = method.get("StreetNamePreDirectional", "")                strNmPreMod = method.get("StreetNamePreModifier", "")                strNmPreTyp = method.get("StreetNamePreType", "")                strNmPstDir = method.get("StreetNamePostDirectional", "")                strNmPstMod = method.get("StreetNamePostModifier", "")                strNmPstTyp = method.get("StreetNamePostType", "")                subAddrId = method.get("SubaddressIdentifier", "")                subAddrTyp = method.get("SubaddressType", "")                uspsBxGrpId = method.get("USPSBoxGroupID", "")                uspsBxGrpTyp = method.get("USPSBoxGroupType", "")                uspsBxId = method.get("USPSBoxID", "")                uspsBxTyp = method.get("USPSBoxType", "")                zip = method.get("ZipCode", "")                cursor.updateRow([oid, addr, addrNum, addrNumPre, addrNumSuf, buildNm, corOf, intSep, lndMrkNm, notAddr, occTyp, occId, plcNm, recip, stNm, strNm, strNmPreDir, strNmPreMod, strNmPreTyp, strNmPstDir, strNmPstMod, strNmPstTyp, subAddrId, subAddrTyp, uspsBxGrpId, uspsBxGrpTyp, uspsBxId, uspsBxTyp, zip])           except Exception:                cursor1 = arcpy.da.InsertCursor(outErrors, fields1)                cursor1.insertRow([addr, oid])                arcpy.AddMessage("Bad Input Address = : {}".format(addr))‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ...

Josh, You and Randy both helped and gave me correct answers to what really ended up being separate questions.  I just tossed a coin and will mark you as having the correct answer. Thank you and Randy both for the help.  (I can't promise I won't be back asking more questions....) I really appreciate the assistance. Justin ... View more

Thanks Randy - that did the trick, and it makes sense.  Thank you for the explanation. Justin ... View more
