Uunable to use 'arcpy.env.workspace' properly !

arcpy.env.workspace doest not work when we use barename for input file ?

# arcpy10.py
# CPython 2.6, ArcGIS 10, IDLE, windows_XP

import arcpy, sys
import arcpy.mapping
from arcpy import env
arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True

arcpy.env.workspace = "d:\\test"

# Fullpath of input file.
arcpy.FloatToRaster_conversion(
"d:\\test\\14605430.flt",
"14605430.tif")

try:
# No fullpath of input file.
arcpy.FloatToRaster_conversion(
"14605430.flt",
"14605430.img")

except:
print arcpy.GetMessages()
sys.exit()

There are two ways of accessing submodules (arcpy is a module, env (arcpy.env) is a submodule). In your code you are mixing them up, which is at least going to cause some issues...

Because you used:

from arcpy import env

Env is imported as its own module, so later on you should access it with:

env.workspace = "d:\\test"

The other way to do it is just:

import arcpy

Env is still a submodule of arcpy, so later on you should access it with:

arcpy.env.workspace = "d:\\test"

After that you should use the Not Full path method you have shown in your original post...
