Hello,
I am trying to create line segments between different cities in the world. I've previously used Spider Tools: http://arcscripts.esri.com/details.asp?dbid=14908 and it worked quite well when I was mapping from one main point to many others. e.g. A -> B, A -> C, A -> D, A -> E....
My issue now is that I have connection cities in between, so I need to map
A --> B
A--> B --> C
A --> C --> D
A --> B --> E --> F ...
Does anybody know of a way I can get these lines to automatically be created? It seems like it would be relatively simple - just connecting the dots based on location, but I can't find anything that would do this for me.
Thanks!
I would check out the new "Points to Line" tool that's included at ArcGIS 10.
Data Management Tools > Features > Points to Line

Hi, I'm a beginner in Arcgis and I have a similar problem as dakaye. I need to create segments between points but the problem is that some points are repeated in many segments. That's why I can't use "Points to Line" tool in Arcgis 10. I have data like:
segment id, starting point id, end point id
It looks really simple but though I spent a lot of time by searching I still don't know how to figure out. I would appriciate any help. Thanks
