Statistics not calculate when creating a TIFF/Imagine raster in ArcGIS 10

Hi,

I'm having problems getting some code working in ArcGis 10, that had previous worked in 9.3.

I am generating a raster and then tryng to save it. If I save it as a GRID, everything is ok. But if I save it as TIFF or Imagine, no raster statistics get generated. For example, ArcMap / Layer Properties / Source says 'Statistics have not been calculated' and the symbology shows the range of values as 0-255 for a 8-bit raster. The raster (pixel) data appears to be saved correctly - it's simply missing the statistics.

I have simplified our code to produce a demonstration - see code below - almost identical for the working/failing cases. This is invoked in a BaseCommand in ArcMap.

Mike.
