Through out the ArcGIS desktop documentation there are numerous sample scripts that refer to data in c:\Projects such as c:\Project\Project.mxd.

Where can I find/download this data please?

Hi Dan

I am aware of the ArcTutor data but I couldn't find the "C:\Project" data in there.

I am referring to the ArcPy training/help in ArcGIS desktop and on line.  There are sample scripts and they all refer to C:\projects and I can't find that data anywhere.  Here is a reference.  Scroll down to the sample script.  The content is the same as that appears in the help

Thanks Rob

Actually, that is just a sample format ... "C:\Project" .... doesn't really exist, you are supposed to substitute the example projects and elements with your own projects and paths.  It is the structure that they are conveying, not actual projects.

Unless they reference sample data way back at the beginning http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/latest/analyze/arcpy-mapping/getting-started-with-arcpy-mapping-...

Thanks Dan - I sort of expected that - especially after my fruitless searches.  Some of the details further down the scripts led me to believe these documents actually existed or were available.

Thanks very much for your help - much appreciated.
