This is not correct as the entire model iterates and you only want to run the Intersect once. Collect values should have its output marked as a parameter (in an "sub-model" that has the iterator) and the output piped to the Intersect tool in the external model that calls the sub-model.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 21 Aug 2019 17:51:28 GMT curtvprice 2019-08-21T17:51:28Z Iterating both inputs for a tool in Modelbuilder
