So far, the script does a MySql connection, queries data, does some stats and produces a final table.&nbsp; I've been waiting for the ExportReport to come out in 10.1, so that the table can be loaded into an existing report layout file and a pdf created.&nbsp; I can get the script to run perfectly within an ArcMap document, but I can't get it to run as a stand-alone.&nbsp; It keeps bailing out when trying to located the &lt;report_source&gt; (my final table) in the ExportReport syntax.&nbsp; How do you code it, so that python can see the table?&nbsp; I haven't even been successful in getting a stand-alone python script to load a table into an existing map document.&nbsp; Any ideas????&nbsp; Thank you!!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 23 Aug 2012 15:38:27 GMT CynthiaKozma 2012-08-23T15:38:27Z Stand-Alone Python Script to recognize tables https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/stand-alone-python-script-to-recognize-tables/m-p/378994#M29897 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I am still new to learning Python, but I am trying to write a stand alone python script that will run once a week on a schedule.
