  • Please add the error you get in the Geoprocessing results window, To Open this window go to the "Geoprocesing" menu at the top of the screen and then select "Results". You will then be able to expand the results for the current session and view the detailed results.

  • @Dan_h_b This one is the script. Dim dblX as double Dim pPoint as IPoint Set pPoint = [Shape] dblX = pPoint.X

Use the Add XY Coordinates tool on the points feature class. The tool will add two fields Point_X and Point_Y.

Be careful of:

  • The coordinate system being used by the data itself as the tool add's Latitude and Longitude values as appropriate for Geographic Coordinate Systems and vs linear positions for Projected Coordinate Systems.
  • The tool calculates the X and Y based on the CRS of the data source not the data frame.
