Fill Tool is not working

I am trying to fill the depressions. However it seems fill tool is not working, since cut fill generated raster file is displaying zero for all volumes. In addition when I am applying sink tool over the filled DEM, I would end up with the same number for unfilled DEM, Although I have to expect zero for the number of sinks after filling.
Note that the surface I am working with has a high slope of 13%
Any recommendation on why the fill tool is not working?
Thanks

Thanks a lot for your prompt response. Through your response I found what was my mistake.
Regards,



Ali,
I believe up on the screen is default for Arc Map is north.

To check this issue, I had to convert the data to create the DEM the way I  know how. There were some negative lat/long valuse that I changedBelow is a jpg of my work on the DEM you sent in xlsx format. I assumed a 10'x10' cell size (but that shouldn't matter for checking direction).

Format you sent it in:
          Lattitude   Longitude   Bedrock
       -2   48   12.5179
       -1   48   12.4755
       0   48   12.4015
       1   48   12.2358
       2   48   12.124
       3   48   12.1508
       4   48   12.2076
       5   48   12.179
       6   48   12.2155
       7   48   12.244
       8   48   12.2862

Format I converted it to:
NCOLS 29
NROWS 51
XLLCORNER 290
YLLCORNER 510
CELLSIZE 10
NODATA_VALUE 0
12.5179
12.4755
12.4015
12.2358
12.124
12.1508
12.2076
12.179
12.2155
12.244
12.2862

This is the resulting flow direction grid. The red lines are flow trace paths using the Arc Hydro flow trace path tool. all the paths flow south (down).

Dear Mark
I was just wondering if you know how can I export TIFF image from raster file along with its legend?And how can I add axes to the scene?
Thanks a lot

Go to layout view. Add the legend and organize the layout as you want it. Go to "File>Export" and choose the format you want to export to, etc. My license is down and so I can't verify this process right now, but I'm pretty sure that should work. This will be an image for sharing (like I did in this thread), it will not likely be good for Arc Map data or be georeferenced. I think if you do the export from data view, the image might be georeferenced, but you won't get a legend since that only works in layout view. I suppose you could screen capture the legend and paste it into data view if you want the data part to be georeferenced and have the legend also.

Dear Mark
And how can I add axes to the scene?


That would be a graticule, which is a property of the data frame. (Go to layout view/ right click your map/ Properties)
