I know this is going to be a very simple answer because I was able to do this but after a couple of months of not using Arcmap forgot how to do it: in an attribute table I have an attribute "WPC" which is the efficacy of wind at various locations in terms of power generation. The attribute uses a scale from one to seven with one being poor and 7 being superb for potential wind turbine power generation sites. I want to create a new field with these descriptions from the field with 1-7. By selecting by attributes for all of the '1' WPC values how can I populate a new column of descriptions with 'poor', 2 for 'fair'... etc.I have done such an operation before and just completely forget how to do it! If i wasn't clear, in short I want to create a field with descriptions from the metadata that correspond to the data already in the attributes table. I'm using arcmap but I know others use similar operations. Thanks.
