Point To Polyline Wizard

Converts a point data set to a polyline feature class. Attaches to the polyline attribute table the values of the attributes for the first and last point that form a single polyline

Inputs:

• A point feature layer
  • REQUIRED: an ID field which value defines the points to be used for creation of each polyline
  • OPTIONAL: an Order field that defines in what sequence the points describe the polyline. If no Order field is used the order is defined by the record number of the points
  • OPTIONAL: a Link field. The values for the first and last point that will form a single polyline will be added to the polyline attribute table.

Outputs:

• New polyline feature class
• Fields to be added to the polyline attribute table
  • [ET_ID] - the field used as Polyline ID
  • [ET_FromAtt] - the values of the start point of the polyline in the Link field (if link field is used)
  • [ET_ToAtt] - the values of the end point of the polyline in the Link field (if link field is used)

Note: There should be at least two points with the same value in the ID field in order polylines to be created
