Problem:

I wrote a python code to run the split by attributes tbx attached.
However, an error jumped out, saying
AttributeError: Object: Tool or environment <SplitLayerByAttributes> not found.

Please kindly comment on the code after having a try of the attachments.
(shapefile: test1/tbx: Axxxxx.zip)

Thank you.

Thanks.
I made my own code.
