Can I split Layers into Multiple Layers?? atoth22 04-05-2007

I have several line segmenets on a layer and each segment has a number
1-7 associated with it. I know how to color cordinate the lines. For
example, I know how to make all the lines valued 1 blue and all the
lines valued 2 red, etc...I was curious if there was a way to have
arcview split the lines between layers based on their value. For
example, I would like all the lines valued 1 on layer1 and all the
lines valued 2 on layer2. Thank you for the help.

You can save the layer files, with a different SQL query each time,
returning only the lines of the proper 'type'.

You can do a SELECT query like TYPE = "1" and so on.. then export the
selection as a layer.
