The symbology is carrying over when I convert from layer to kml. However, the layer is created in the script using the make feature layer function, so I never get a chance to change the symbology in ArcMap. It appears that when the layer is created, it is just assigned a random color and that is what is shown in the kml. I'm curious if there is a script that will allow me to change the color. Thank you for the suggestion of using the apply symbology from layer. I did create a layer file with the red color symbology and it worked. The problem with this is that the user would always have to have that one layer file for it to work, so if there is a way to get it directly in the script it would be much better.
