For Excel tables, you can do this using the Excel To Table tool. For data with spatial information, the XY Table To Point tool creates a new point feature class based on the x- and y-coordinates defined in the table. Additionally, the Table To Table tool gives you control over the output location. The Table To dBASE tool or Copy Rows tool converts tables so they can be used in ArcGIS Pro. To edit non-OID tables, the best practice is to create a stand-alone database table. Non-OID tables contain read-only tabular data that cannot be Tables without ObjectIDs, also referred to as non-OID tables, have limitations. ObjectIDs are necessary for managing data. Use the Fields view to create, modify, and delete fields.
You can also copy and paste values from applications external to ArcGIS Pro, as described in the Copy and paste values from other applications section below. Fields from the joined table are read-only.Įdits can include editing a value in a table cell and editing a field with contingent values. You can edit joined tables, but only the base table fields. You are also restricted from editing fields that haveīeen demarcated as read-only for the layer in the Fields view of the All managedįields, such as ObjectID, Shape_Length, and Shape_Area, are notĮditable. Some attributes are not editable in the table. If you edit this data externally, for example in Excel, you must add the text file to the project again. These tables are read-only when they are in a map. Some tables are not editable, such as text files (. If you want to safeguard against unintentional edits, you can customize the Edit ribbon to include the hidden Enable editing button, which prevents editing unless it has been purposefully enabled. When you make edits in the table view, the edit session remains active until you save or discard your edits. There are no buttons to start or stop an edit session.
