Hello, Thanks for the response. The dissolve part works fine. However, while splitting the dissolved line, it seems as if the splitting operation is being terminated when it comes across a break in the line. (My network has gaps/break in between.) The output, instead of containing several parts of specified length, contains only of two parts. The first part has one short segment that begins at the beginning of the dissolved line and breaks at the first gap after the beginning. The second part is the remaining big chunk of the dissolved line. ... View more

Hey Jayanta, Thanks for chipping in. Mr. Fairhurst has provided a more refined version of your solution, I have used that method to successfully finish my work. Anyways, I appreciate your help. ... View more

Dear Mr.Patterson, I have used both the methods suggested in this thread to finish my task. They yielded slightly different end-results. Ms. Strauch's method did not include the information about the polylines which did not have any poins in proximity. Since my professor asked for a color coded map, Ms. Strauch's method will not fully serve my purpose. However, I did not face this problem with Mr.Richard Fairhurst method, the result of that method included all polylines regardless of having points located within the search distance. This method worked best for me. There are no other differences that I could observe. Thank you, Raghu. ... View more

Dear Mr. Fairhurst, Thank you so much for providing an elegant and effective solution to my problem. I have to work on several different line shapefiles and your solution made my work much easier. Thank you so much sir!   ... View more

Miss Strauch, It worked, this is exactly what I am looking for! Thank you so much for taking such pains to explain the process to me. I really appreciate it ma'm. Here is a screen-shot, I have drawn a red box around the specific part of results I am interested in. Thanks again! ... View more

I apologize for being ambiguous. Let me elaborate. When I used the 'Generate Near Table' tool, I specified certain search distance and unchecked the 'Find closest feature only' option. So in the output table, I get the list of all points located within the search distance from each line, along with their ranks. For example if there are 10 points within a distance of 100 feet from a line (Whose FID is say, 15). I get 10 new rows (all related to this line with FID 15), in each row is the rank for every one of those 10 points. Perhaps, this picture will explain what I am trying to say more effectively, This is how it is supposed to work right?         However, I only need the count of those points, not the ranks and the extra rows they bring along. I need a simplified table which says a line with so-and-so FID has these many number of points located within a distance of 100 feet from it. Now, how can I get something like this? The table I posted along with my question is meant to serve as an example of what I am trying to obtain, I made it in excel, it is no product of ArcMap. ... View more

Mr. Patterson, thank you so much for taking the time to help me sir. I have tried everything you suggested with no success. However, I have made another startling discovery! This problem of crashing is not just with the 'Generate Near Table' tool but with every other tool in the Arc Toolbox! Do you have any idea why something like this might happen sir? Also, the search feature in ArcMAp is unresponsive. Update: I was able to partially fix this problem by unchecking the 'enable background processing' option in the 'Geo-processing Options'. I can now use the Arc Toolbox without crashing the program. However, the search feature still does not work. When I click on the search button nothing happens at all. ... View more

Dear Mr. Patterson, The files are in the same coordinate system. In fact, I have created one of these shapefiles from the other one. There is no error message at all, the program abruptly closes. I have later tried to use the tool on a different set of shapefiles, also with same coordinate system , only to witness the crash once again with no warning. ... View more

Thank you so much! Your reply was very helpful. ... View more
