I'm a GIS newbee too and really enjoying the forum so far.

Guys-  I'm an old gray-hair that's been working with ESRI products since 1990 and version 4.5 ArcInfo on a Unix box; there is always something to learn and share.  For the past 8 years or so I've been doing nothing but GIS/9-1-1 dispatch work because I saw a niche there, and I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. [A couple of weeks ago I got a call from a Police Captain saying he had just been to an ESRI presentation and wanted to know if we had the ability to map crime incidents.... Wow, that's a novel concept.... ]

The ESRI forums in general are a great resource, and a specific user community like this one is a great place to come up with ideas, share them, and commiserate about problems.

All the best-

That's great Joe! I too work in the Public Safety field. We're building an RMS & GIS system for some of the law enforcement agencies in Nevada - Dept of Public Safety is our pilot group and then some PDs & SOs will join. I'm excited and honestly a little overwhelmed at the idea of administering the GIS portion of it. I'm brand spankin' new to GIS, but I'm having a blast learning. 🙂

Michelle-  you've got your work cut out for you;  this forum and all the other ESRI forums are a very good resource.  I don't like it when firms use the forums for business, but if you ever feel the need, I know this guy in Utah that does nothing but GIS/9-1-1 for a living...:rolleyes:

Thank you so much! 🙂
