Table Select
Function Description: Filter table records that match a structured query expression and write them to an output table.
Data Description
- Use the Expression Builder to construct a data extraction expression. For detailed usage, see Select By Attribute.
Input can be a vector file, a table in a GPKG database, or a feature class.
If no expression is provided, the entire Input Table is written to the Output Table. If an expression is provided, it is applied to the Input Table, and a subset based on the expression is written to the Output Table.
Steps
- Find the Toolbox -> Vector Tools -> Extraction Analysis -> Table Select tool and double-click to open the tool window.
