Hello: You can also use XtoolsPro, if you have it. It is straightforward
as a feature conversion.

Diana,
Try downloading the extension "Hawth's Tools". It has a tool to convert
points to lines. Works really well.

Subject: [gislist] creating a line from xy data
I'm trying to create a line feature class from a tab-delimited text file
that has four columns (id, x, y, and z). Am using ArcInfo. The
"Generate" command doesn't work because it can't handle z values. I've
now been playing with "Create Features from Text File" in ArcToolbox
(under Samples > Data Management > Features), but it returns a null
(empty) shapefile. Although my data are really only for *one* big line,
I've already tried breaking it down into sections, etc., as in the
examples. But neither way works. Any ideas on what I should try next?
Diana
