In the attribute table of a standalone table, I want to copy a row and paste it into a different table (identical fields).
I’m aware of the append tool. I’m looking for more efficient copy/paste functionality that’s suitable for fast-paced edits.
Not to be confused with duplicating a row within the same standalone table: https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-ideas/ability-to-edit-standalone-tables-in-arcmap-just/idc-...
Are you doing this one row at a time? that doesn't really scream 'fast paced' or 'efficient' no matter how you approach it - is there a way you can flag records for more of a batch processing once edits are completed? I think a small python script run as a script tool running an insert cursor might work for this kind of thing, especially if you can run this as a batch process.
@clt_cabq It's just for one-off editing tasks. It is similar to copying a feature from one FC to a different FC. I wouldn't want to use a Python script for that.
@Bud to be frank, your options are pretty limited, a python script would be pretty easy and low effort depending on how you do this and what the actual procedures are, and offers the benefits of any scripting - standardization, codifying processes, etc. I imagine you aren't interested in using the 'copy and past-special' type operation? If you haven't tried that then that might be an approach to look at.
I'm not sure paste-special works for tables; I think you have to select something on the map.
