Hello, I have created a set of maps using data driven pages that are driven by a layer named "map_frame". I am trying to add text elements that will automatically update based on the attributes of a layer named "Boundaries" that are present within each data driven page. I understand that I can do dynamic text using data driven page attributes, but I need to pull attribute for the text from layers that are not driving the the data driven pages. I followed the example in this Q/A posted in the community: Extending Dynamic Text I was able to get the code to work, but the text elements did not update when I would navigate to the next data driven page in the series. I think this is due to the code pulling from the first attribute in the layer's table, but I don't know how to change the given code to adjust for my desired outcome. I'm new to Python and the arcpy.mapping module. Does anyone have any guidance?   ArcMap 10.8.1 Example Code: import arcpy # get the reference to the map document and the layer named "Boundaries" in the map document mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument("CURRENT") mapLyr = arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mxd, "Boundaries")[0] # get the reference to the text elements in the map document. I have 2 text elements with the name ID and county idElem = arcpy.mapping.ListLayoutElements(mxd, "TEXT_ELEMENT", "ID")[0] countyElem = arcpy.mapping.ListLayoutElements(mxd, "TEXT_ELEMENT", "County")[0] # create a cursor and grab the first row in the feature class for the layer specified above rows = arcpy.SearchCursor(mapLyr.dataSource) row = rows.next() # set the text property of the text element equal to the value from the fields named "ID" and "County" idElem.text = row.getValue("ID") countyElem.text = row.getValue("County") # save the map document and delete the reference to the row, cursor and map object mxd.save() del mxd, row, rows,     Thank you! ...

I have a feature class with pictures attached to the points that I have successfully viewed from ArcGIS online. When I pulled the geodatabase into ArcGIS Pro, the attachments were no longer showing up. The geodatabse has the feature class, a GBD_ServiceItems table, and ATTACH table and a relationship class. I tried this workaround (How To: Re-establish the relationship class for geodatabase attachments ) but the feature failed to copy and I received this error: Cannot open origin or destination class of this relationship class. [filename__ATTACH] Unexpected operation [filename__ATTACH]. I've re-downloaded the geodatabase twice and have had the same issue. Please let me know how to resolve this issue. Thank you. ... View more
