Concatenate Date And Time Fields (Tracking Analyst)
Récapitulatif
Concatenates two separate date and time fields in a feature class or layer into a single field containing both the date and time.
Tracking Analyst is designed to work with temporal data containing date and time information in a single field. If your data contains the date and time in two separate fields, this tool can be used to combine the information together into a new field that Tracking Analyst will understand.
Utilisation
-
The input date and time fields must have a field data type of text.
-
The new field added to the feature layer by this tool will also have a field data type of text.
- If you are working with a shapefile that contains a date field with only date information (i.e., 03/09/2006), you must transfer the date values into a text field before using this tool to concatenate it with a time field.
