You should be able to do this with python scripting. You should be able to have python create a new file geodatabase. Then use ListFeatureClasses from your first file geodatabase to copy this data into your new file geodatabase. Then use ListListFeatureClasses from your second file geodatabase to append this data into your new file geodatabase onto the feature classes that were created when the data from the first file geodatabase was copied into the new file geodatabase. You might consider posting this thread in the python subforum. Thank you...but first I have to learn python...could be a slippery subject?

I need to combine two geodatabases into one. The geodatabases are being built from separate sources, but contain identical features classes, and are spatially different. I can combine the gdbs by a cumbersome solution, layer by layer, but I wonder if there is a more elegant way to do this? My cumbersome method is to: create a new gdb copy in all the feature datasets from one gdb (using copy / paste in ArcCatalog)...so far, so good. Combine data from the second gdb using the Append command from ArcToolBox... But...when I append data from the second gdb...the command only works at the feature class level, and cannot append an entire feature dataset. This means I have to wade through each feature class layer by layer, appending them to the new gdb. Surely there must be a more elegant way to combine the two gdb's with a simpler command?

There is an interesting quirk in the Table of Contents. In Lesson 1, page 24, I moved the Cities layer in between "Transportation" and "Cities"...it worked ok, but small yellow warning triangles appear next to the Imagery Basemap and Cities layers. They go away again when I revert to the previous menu configuration...The book says I can ignore them, but what do they signify?

Tim Ormsby responded to my problem within about twenty minutes of my e-mailing him: here�??s my first suspicion about what�??s going on: On Step 4C, you click the Connect To Folder button and navigate to the C\UGIS directory. You have to stop there and click OK on the Connect To Folder dialog box. This will put your Add Data dialog box in the state shown below.(screenshot attached). Step 4D should then continue with double-clicking the ParkSite folder and subsequent folders inside the Add Data dialog box. At the end of that, the data should be visible. If by chance you apply the Step 4D actions (the double-clicking of those folders and the geodatabase) while still working in the Connect To Folder dialog box, you�??ll get the same kind of result illustrated in the picture you sent. I�??m hoping this is your case. In which case, you should be able simply to redo the steps and have everything work properly. (You can then go into the Catalog window in ArcMap�??or go into ArcCatalog�??to remove the dysfunctional folder connection. Just right-click on it in the catalog window and choose Disconnect Folder from the context menu.) Let me know if this works And it did work! Thanks Tim.

Lesson 1, page 10: adding project data to the basemap. My ESRI.gdb file opens, but appears to contain no layers, so I cannot access the Boundary shape File. I have e-mailed a zipped-up copy of the .gdb file to the "Understanding GIS team" to see if the data is there. Help!
