When I use "Import 3D Files" in ArcToolbox as suggested by ArcGIS 9.2 Desktop Help, I get the error message "No Valid Files&nbsp; Failed to execute (Import3DFiles)". I have removed all unsupported geometry types (Box, Cone, Cylinder, Extrusion, PointSet, Sphere, Text) from the VRML file but still get the same error message. I am ultimately trying to generate a raster file from the VRML file and wanted to know what steps should be taken. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks, </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Jamie</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 20 May 2011 07:52:18 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/3d-questions/problem-importing-vrml-files-into-arcmap-9-2/m-p/99416#M558 JamieBuscher 2011-05-20T07:52:18Z Re: Problem Importing VRML Files Into ArcMap 9.2 https://community.esri.com/t5/3d-questions/problem-importing-vrml-files-into-arcmap-9-2/m-p/99417#M559 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Not much of an answer; I've run into this issue a few times.
