Hi there When I run the dissolve function on my shapefile, it produces more features. I'm using a field with 25 possible values. I've allowed for multipart features. I start with 62 features and end up with over 5000. I've tried enabling and disabling the Background processing already. Thanks Sunny

Hi Melita Thanks for your response I did try to project the shape in a Geographic coordinate system first, then a Projected coordinate system. But it still has the same effect

Hi There I'm trying to create a BSQ file in the Model Builder. This will only work if the data frame is in a geographic coordinated system. But my purposes I'm translating a polygon that is in a projected coordinate system. If I do this in ArcMap and have my data frame in a geographic coordinated system then it will work. If it is projected it will. I want to do the same in ArcCatalog so I can repeat multiple iterations. How can I change the coordinate system of the data frame in ArcCatalog so I can achieve this? Thanks

Have you tried repairing the geometry before you did the join? Is the projection correct?

Hi All I'm using ArcGIS10 and in acmap when I try to use the tool Polygon to Raster Arcmap will have an error: "background processing has encountered a serious error and is unable to continue" so then I turn of the background processing in the Geoprocessing options and then if I run the tool again Arcmap will just automatically quit. I've done this process many times before so I have no idea what's actually happening. Would appreciate some help! Thanks Sunny

Hi all I was trying to use the Median Center tool to find the median of points grouped by postcodes, but it came back with the error ERROR 001143: Background Server threw an exception. I've tried turning off the background processing option but it still doesn't work. Help please 😞 Thanks Sunny

Yes I had set a search distance of 30m and tried to do the join to the closest region but the processing time wasn't practical. Ordinarily simplifying would be great but I have to keep the level of accuracy high for this particular project.

Hi Darren Thanks for your reply-- but I want points that stray 30m away from the coastline to be joined with the same characteristics as the region it's closest to without using a spatial join (because I tried this and it took more than week to process due to the complexity of the polygon) and without a single point snapping to more than one region-- would trace still work? Thanks

Hi everyone I was wondering if there was a way to extend a polygon outwards? What I have is a polygon of a country with 12 different regions within it and the edge (coast) is lined with these various regions (no region overlaps). I wish to extend these polygons 30m past the coastline. However I can't use a buffer(with the outside only option) because then the regions overlap and it's impossible to clip overlaps when at different points of the coastline, I have different regions overlapping. I also can't use the edit vertices option because there are so many vertices that I would have to individually click and drag outwards to the same distance. Is there a function that can take my polygon and extend the polygon outwards over the coast? Thanks
