field summary error

[jwokurka]

I'm using field summary to tell me basic info about the fields in my dataset. I select all the fields, but it doesn't show output for fields that are null. Why wouldn't they just show up with 100 percent missing? That's what it's done with other datasets.

(I can't post anything since it's confidential)

I figured out it was because these fields were bool types. if you are going to do that in the tool, you should tell the user.

@jwokurka, thank you for posting your solution.  I've suggested that notes of this behavior be added to the Help Documentation for the Field Summary tool, so that should be incorporated soon.  I'd also encourage you to post this feedback on the Ideas section on the Community, especially if you'd like to see any change to the Field Summary tool configuration or behavior.
