Based on the comment section it states the script is intended to run from a script tool and requires two input parameters. I created a toolbox and placed the script inside. When I open up ArcCatalog and double click on the script it pops up with "This Tool has no parameters". I expected the input window to appear to enter in the parameters. Obvious I am not understanding how to use this. I am an absolute beginner trying to take some sample scripts and apply them to my work as a learning process.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Note it says this was written for 10.0 - I'm running 10.1. It was downloaded from the SampleArcPyMappingScriptTools</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Thanks</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Terry</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 05 Jun 2013 14:26:07 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/updatemxdtags-script-by-esri-in-july-2010-help/m-p/642823#M50148 TerryHiggins1 2013-06-05T14:26:07Z Re: UpdateMXDTags Script by ESRI in July 2010 Help with running - beginner https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/updatemxdtags-script-by-esri-in-july-2010-help/m-p/642824#M50149 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>The script is probably set up to take user specified arguments, but when you make the script tool, you need to specify the parameters in the properties of the tool.
