Every source that I look says to right-click the layer and then click "make permanent". However, that option does not even show up when I right-click my output raster. I also tried to save the output as a layer file but that also does not work. When I add the layer file it still has the red exclamation point next to the layer name. I am using ArcMap 9.3.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 22 Jul 2011 16:09:31 GMT DanielBigelow 2011-07-22T16:09:31Z How to make raster calculator output permanent https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/how-to-make-raster-calculator-output-permanent/m-p/456092#M15347 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I am having trouble in trying to figure out how to make raster calculator output permanent.

The aforementioned "problem" was occurring because I was creating a name for the output in the calculator. I have no idea as to the location where it was being saved, but without the name I can now make the output permanent.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 22 Jul 2011 19:38:52 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/how-to-make-raster-calculator-output-permanent/m-p/456093#M15348 DanielBigelow 2011-07-22T19:38:52Z Re: How to make raster calculator output permanent https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/how-to-make-raster-calculator-output-permanent/m-p/456094#M15349 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><BLOCKQUOTE class="jive-quote">I have no idea as to the location where it was being saved</BLOCKQUOTE><BR /><BR /><SPAN>In case you want to clean up, the outputs are probably still there in the current workspace (Spatial analyst toolbar - options).
