Hi

I found the problem my self.

The LAN010 output was empty and therefor the "FC to Raster" crashed the model and ArcMap.....When I removed this "string" in the model, it worked just fine.

Henrik,

I am glad you posted the problem and the data. I have reproduced the crash and passed it to the team for investigation and hopefully a fix. Thanks for your post and the update.

Thank you for sharing the problem. It will be fixed in 10.1 and also in 10 SP5

The problem occurs when you have a feature class with an undefined extent. To create a raster one needs an extent.
FeatureToRaster and PolygonToRaster now throw an error when there is no extent.

In your workflow you'll need to make a decision what to do when a feature class with no extent is created. Possible solutions include, inter alia;
- stop processing, or
- define an extent and in your case a output raster filled with NoData will be created.

Once again, thanks

Steve
