I am trying to select some features by "SelectLayerByAttribute_management" like this:
flayer <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> arcpy<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>MakeFeatureLayer_management<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>r<SPAN class="string token">"D:\LAKES.shp"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN> <SPAN class="string token">"myLayer"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN>
arcpy<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>SelectLayerByAttribute_management<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>flayer<SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN> <SPAN class="string token">"NEW_SELECTION"</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">,</SPAN> <SPAN class="string token">""""NAME" = 'Clarks Hill Lake'"""</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN>
cnt <SPAN class="operator token">=</SPAN> arcpy<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>GetCount_management<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN>flayer<SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN>
<SPAN class="keyword token">print</SPAN> cnt
arcpy<SPAN class="punctuation token">.</SPAN>RefreshActiveView<SPAN class="punctuation token">(</SPAN><SPAN class="punctuation token">)</SPAN><SPAN class="line-numbers-rows"><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN><SPAN></SPAN></SPAN>
Everything is fine and cnt = 1, but in the map, it is not highlighted. How can highlight selected feature when you are running the arcpy script out of ArcGIS environment.
