Problem with query builder and output raster for the "Extract by attribute" tool

[GC]

Hi everyone,

I am extracting areas with particular elevations from a STRM DEM. I have a .bil file, and I recalculated the statistics to exclude the -32768 value.

Then I go to Spatial Analyst - Extract - By attribute.  In the query builder I put the expression Value > 650 AND Value < 1200, to extract elevations between 650 and 1200. When I try to verify the expression, it says there is an error.
I have tried to:
- eliminate spaces
- write only Value > 650
- exported my file to tiff format

and it still gives me an error.  If I try to extract anyways, a raster with vertical stripes comes up.[ATTACH=CONFIG]29380[/ATTACH]

Any thoughts on this?

This sound very familiear...

I searched "stripes" and found this thread. It appears there was a fix for the issue it is about.

I'm not sure if it relates directly to your situaton. However, your problem has been discussed in the forums. A search for "stripes" or "bands" may lead you to a solution.
