by Laura R.H. Biewick and Shayne R. Urbanowski, U.S. Geological Survey and Sheila Cain and Larry Neasloney, Bureau of Land Management
The following is a list of tables contained in each ArcView project view. Tables can be accessed in ArcView by first making a theme active, and then selecting Table… from the Theme pull-down menu. See Appendix 4 for an overview of the items (fields) in each table. Notice that the same tables are used in multiple views; the difference is in how attributes are chosen and displayed.
