Hi All, 

I have a blended datafile from about 10 sources, resulting in some data that has info to year 2020, but most data being more sparce.  I want to use generate rows to create rows up to 2020.  Seems simple.

I have used Summarize to add a Max_Year field and have looked at all the examples.  I continue to get errors I don't understand. "Value did not change after the loop expression.  Thanks for your help!

If the files are already blended, can the "Imputation" tool fill in missing values for you?

Note that you are creating a new field. In this case, you might be looking to intialize using the max_year, but looping on your new field New_Year.

Thank you John, but the empty fields shows me there are no records with that year.

Of course.  I couldn't see the forest for the trees.  Works like a dream now.
