How to Find UNLIMITED Points near a point?

[MostafaBouzari]

Hello guys,

i'm trying to learn Spatial object and i came across a question that asked to fine a nearest point and Amoung possible answer were

• 385
• 538
• 835
• 853

While in Find Nearest  tool we can't choose more than 20

Is it possible to Find Unlimited Amount of points (For example: in a 3 miles Distance)?

You can use a distance tool to find the distance between a point and all other points by joining or spending the point to all records. 

cheers,

hi @MostafaBouzari 

As well as @MarqueeCrew's suggestion, you can build a 3 mile Trade Area around the point and use the Spatial Match tool to find all the points that intersect the trade area.

While the drop down in the find nearest tool limits you to 20, you can type whatever value you wish in the field. That said, the suggestions below are correct in that if you had an 'unlimited' number of points your best option is a trade area and spatial match combo.
