Dear Adam, I have no good news for you. I am sorry my friend. Since my last email until now both mxds 10.3 and 10.4 have been open and the “Find” tool, after all this time, is up and running. However, when I went back to mxd 10.3, I noticed that after hitting enter or Find, the results window did a quick flashing without showing the values. Once, I clicked on New Search, the tool worked just fine. I am sorry that I was not able to replicate your issue with the “Find tool” and help you out :0( One difference is that I have the double of RAM. Have a good day Cheers Chao Jorge Ruiz-Valdepeña, GIS Instructor, CTT+ ... View more

Good Morning Adam, I am testing mxds created with 10.3 and 10.4 accessed with ArcReader 10.6.1 I will share with you the results later in the day. Enjoy your day Cheers Chao Jorge Ruiz-Valdepeña, GIS Instructor, CTT+ ... View more

  Dear Adam, I have Windows 10, 64-bit and 16GB RAM. I installed in my computer ArcReader 10.6.1 (Build 9270). I published a map and opened in ArcReader. After 60 minutes of having the “Find tool window” open it still working just fine. I left the window idle for more than 60 minutes, as soon as I clicked on it, it activated very quickly. I am afraid it is not the ArcReader :0( ... View more

Hello, Could you a little bit more explicit? What is the goal that you are trying to achieve? What kind of data are you talking about?  More background information will help. Let me know; I will like to help you. ... View more

Dear Michael, Unfortunately, you cannot change the DMS decimals units :0( Here is a workaround to display decimal places as Degrees Decimal Minutes. Open ArcGIS Pro and create a new Blank project (TestDecimals) Close Catalog View Insert a New Map (By default the units are set to Decimal Degrees, I updated to DMS)   However, you can switch to a different set of Units and change the number of decimals digits. Click on Project > Options > Units > Expand Location Units Expand the fields of the table, so you can read all the field values Right click on Degrees Decimal Minutes > Click on Set unit format Under “Display order for coordinates: Verify that the radio button for Longitude, Latitude (X,Y) is checked Under “Decimal places” set the value to your desired number of decimals places (3) Click “OK” twice Click on the back arrow to return to the display In the Content Pane, double-click on the Map to open its properties Under General > Display Units click the pulldown icon > Select Degrees Decimal Minutes Click “OK”   Verify at the bottom the new Units and decimal places. :0) ...

Dear Rosialine, Based on your question, here is a workflow to run Kriging with not autocorrelationated data. Using Kriging   A quick tour of Using Kriging http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.3/index.cfm?TopicName=Using%20kriging   The Excel Spreadsheet does not have point locations, just attributes. You mentioned that your data is not autocorrelated. Without points, it will be impossible to run Kriging on this data; however, if you create a Feature Class of random points and join your attributes, you could execute Kriging to interpolate a surface using your attributes. Do not forget that Krigings first check is to look if there is a correlation in the input data Missing information: The point features, the Projected Coordinate System, and the Spatial Extent of the study area.   Step 1: Create a geodatabase table from your Excel file. Create a File Geodatabase and make it the default. Open ArcMap. Open the Search Window; then, click on Tools tab. In the input field, enter Excel and select excel to table (Data Management) tool. Click on the tool blue link. In the Input Excel File browse to the location of your Excel file and add it. For Output Table Browse to your default geodatabase and name it Tetracloreto_TAB. Click OK. Open your new Tetracloreto_TAB table to verify that all the attributes are there.   Step 2: Create a point Feature Class with random points. Open the Search Window and clear previous search. Enter create random and select create random points (Data Management). Click on tool blue link. For Output Location verify that your default geodatabase is selected. Enter Tetracloreto_FC as the name of your new Output Point Feature Class. Skip the next two parameters. For Number of Points [value or field] (optional) enter 142 (number of records in your table). For Minimum Allowed Distance [value or field] (optional) enter 5. Click OK. Open the Tetracloreto_FC attribute table and verify that contains 142 records.   Step3: Join the Point attribute table with our new data table from Excel. In the TOC right click on the new layer; hover the pointer over Join and Relates; then, select ‘Join. In the Join Data pane for Choose the field in this layer that the join will based on: pull-down select OID. Verify that on Choose the table the Tetracloreto_TAB table is selected. Verify that on Choose the field the field OBJECTID is selected. Click OK. Open the Tetracloreto_FC table and verify the join. Notice that the attributes of your excel table now are joined with the Tetracloreto_FC attribute table. Close the table.   Step 4: Verify that the points are not autocorrelated. Now you are ready to validate your point data. Run the Spatial Autocorrelation tool to verify that the points are not autocorrelated. In the Search Window search for the Spatial Autocorrelation(Morans I) (Spatial statistics). Open the tool, click on the tool blue link. For Input Feature Class select Tetracloreto_FC For the Input Field from the pulldown select Tetracloreto_FC.report_r_1. Check Generate Report. Click OK. From the Geoprocessing menu open the Results Window. Expand (+) Spatial Autocorrelation (Morans I) tool results. Double click on the .html report file to open it. Verify that the pattern does not appear to be significantly different than random. Close the window.   Step 5: Create the interpolated surface using Kriging. Click the Customize menu, hover your pointer over Toolbars and select the Geostatistical Analyst extension. Click on Customize menu; then, click on Extensions. Verify that the extension is available and if necessary check the box. Close the Extension pane. On the Geostatistical Analyst toolbar, click on Geostatistical Wizard icon to launch it. This will open the Geostatistical Wizard: Kriging/CoKriging pane. For Methods under Geostatistical methods, click on Kriging/CoKriging. For input data, under Dataset verify that for Source Dataset Tetracloreto_FC is selected. For Data Field from the pulldown menu select Tetracloreto_FC.report_r_1. Click Next. For Kriging Type click on Ordinary. Verify that for Output Surface Type Prediction is selected. Click Next. Explore the Semivariogram/Covariance Modeling pane; then, click Next. (Optional) Explore the Searching Neighborhood pane; then, click Next. (Optional) Explore the Cross Validation pane; then, click Finish. Review the Method Report summary; then, click on OK. The Kriging layer with Prediction Map is displayed with its corresponding color ramp. Click on List By Drawing Order and move the point layer to the top.   In case you would like to try the Kriging tool from the Spatial Analyst Toolbox. In the Search Window search for the kriging (Spatial Analyst). Open the tool, click on the tool blue link. In the Kriging pane for Input point features select your points Tetracloreto_FC. For Z value field from the pulldown select Tetracloreto_FC.report_r_1. For Output surface raster enter Tetracloreto_FC_OK. For Semivariogram properties, verify that the Ordinary Kriging method is selected. For Output variance of prediction raster(optional) browse to your default geodatabase enter Tetracloreto_FC_VAR. Click OK. Review the results.

Dear Lucy, I am Jorge Ruiz-Valdepeña an Esri Instructor. Since you are working on your Thesis, I believe you need documentation rather than here is the answer   I am sharing several links that will help you to get more insight into how to calculate the "Three-way connectivity". The sources are from the EPA agency "enviroatlas" and the other from us "Esri" here in Redlands, CA USA.  There is a Python Script Tool ready for you to download and use to calculate the numbers of connections. the other tool mentioned here is "Kernel Density" from the "Spatial Analyst" Extension and you can use ArcGIS Desktop: ArcMap with any License Level.
