Maybe someone can give me a prod in the right direction?<br>
<br>
I have two Shape files (both polygons).<br>
I'm trying to copy an attribute field value from B.shp into A.shp,
using Lon and Lat from two of A.shp attribute fields to select the
relevant polygon's attribute in B.shp.<br>
<br>
In other words:<br>
<blockquote>A.shp attribute fields are: "Name", "Longitude" and
"Latitude"<br>
B.shp attribute field is "Name"<br>
</blockquote>
Using the LatLong coords in the attribute fields of A.shp, I want to
select a polygon in B.shp, and write that polygons "Name" contents
into this A.shp's "Name" field.<br>
<br>
Is the field calculator up for this?<br>
I've been trying to find ways of reference fields in separate maps
(layers), but neither Google or I are winning at this.<br>
<br>
Regards, and TIA,<br>
Zoltan<br>
