Create square polygons around points

[GlenShennan]

Hi,

Similar to this question I would like to create polygons around all points in a layer, except instead of circles I need 50x50m squares, oriented with facing north-south, east-west. I can't use buffer because that will only create circles, but I can't figure out another approach. Any ideas?

After creating the Buffers use Feature Envelope To Polygon (Data Management)

See also Graphic Buffer tool. It can make a square buffer around points if you use square cap property.
