I installed 10.1 on the laptop and of course it opens the files with no problems.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 07 Dec 2012 13:45:19 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/error-when-trying-to-open-a-10-1-raster-dataset-in/m-p/245757#M13969 StephenPatterson 2012-12-07T13:45:19Z Re: Error when trying to open a 10.1 raster dataset in version 10 https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/error-when-trying-to-open-a-10-1-raster-dataset-in/m-p/245758#M13970 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi Stephen,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Does the raster contain a colormap?&nbsp; If it does, this is a bug and the raster dataset won't open in 10.0.&nbsp; As a workaround, use the Copy Raster tool to export the raster dataset to the 10.0 geodatabase and check the option 'Colormap to RGB'.&nbsp; This will create a 3 band raster, but all of the colors will be maintained.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 07 Dec 2012 19:40:00 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/error-when-trying-to-open-a-10-1-raster-dataset-in/m-p/245758#M13970 JakeSkinner 2012-12-07T19:40:00Z
