When I do this, it says "invalid variant type for field Precip_min[3]" – user3756366 Jul 02 '14 at 16:06
is your number in a string field? – Mapperz Jul 02 '14 at 16:27
I don't think so. It goes like "34.23 -75.23 45" across one row. here is a link to the error http://www.geocities.ws/radar/error.png – user3756366 Jul 02 '14 at 16:38
looks like you have multi-part polygons - you might need to make single part polygons first. – Mapperz Jul 02 '14 at 16:54
How would I do that? – user3756366 Jul 02 '14 at 17:13
