Use this dialog box to createor specify the result table (the object data table that will store the dissolve result field data).
You can reference an existing object data table or define a new one. The dissolve field can be an object data variable or any expression.
The dissolve operation starts with a single item and "joins" all adjacent objects that share the same value for this item. The resulting topology data includes only the field used to perform the dissolve.
For example, you could perform a dissolve operation on a map of zip code boundaries that reference a county name as a data field. Dissolving the zip codes by county results in the county boundaries as a geometry. The result data holds the county name. In that case, the result table stores the result field consisting of the county name.
