Creating Multiple Geodatabases at once

Hello Everybody,

I have a question regarding the creation of geodatabases in ArcCatalog v.9.3. I'm working on a project that requires me to create a geodatabase for each individual DEM we have created (roughly 100). I could create the geodatabase one at a time, but that would be time consuming to create 100 geodatabases manually. So, I'm writing this question to see if anybody knows how to create multiple geodatabases at a time using a tool, batch, command line, etc.

I'm using ArcMap and ArcCatalog v. 9.3.1

Thanks!
Chris

You can use "arcpy.CreateFileGDB_management" within a python "for" loop to accomplish this, and should be fairly easy.

Thanks!
