I have a point data set which represents structures with an attribute that describes the structures (residential, commercial....).  I also have a parcel polygon dataset.  I want to figure out which polygons have residential buildings or commercial buildings in them.  What tool do I need?! 

I do not necissarily have a one to one relationship between points and polygons... that might be the next issue I need to deal with.

Thanks

Hi David,

I believe the Spatial Join tool should be able to accomplish this task for you.  It will depend on how you want this information output to you, however.

YES spatial join is what I needed.  I got it figured out just after posting.
