Jake: The following code did not work for me to identify an SDE feature class because '.sde' did not appear in the dataSource property that I printed out to the progress window. Are you sure '.sde' is supposed to be in the dataSource property for an SDE feature class? All that showed up in the dataSource property for an SDE feature class was \'feature class dataset name.feature class name'. mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument("C:\TEMP\python\Airports.mxd") broken = arcpy.mapping.ListBrokenDataSources(mxd) for n in broken: for lyr in arcpy.mapping.ListLayers(mxd, n): if '.sde' in lyr.dataSource: print lyr.name del mxd.

To All Python Users: I am using the ListBrokenDataSources method in python to get all the broken datasources in an mxd. Now I want the ability to determine the type of connections, specifically SDE, that the broken links are. I tried to loop through the list of broken data source layers and use the serviceproperties method to determine if it was SDE, but that is returning an error. Does anyone know if this can be done? If so, what python method would I use to go about getting this information. Thanks.

Jeff: Do you have to use mxd.saveACopy(r"C:\Project\Project2.mxd") in order for this script to replace the datasource? I would like to create a similar python script, but I do not want to create an additional copy of the file as users could have short-cuts on their desktops to the mxd which would now be broken. Can I just overwrite the existing mxd instead of creating a new mxd? Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks. Mike

Jeff: Does ESRI have a tentative date of when service pack will be available to all users? Does this push back the date of release of ArcGIS v10.1? Your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Joel: You wrote "We're currently using Oracle database 10.2.0.4, but I have both Oracle 10 and Oracle 11 clients on my machine, and I can use either version of the client and still get the same results for the things we do." When you are connecting to Oracle database 10.2.0.4 thru the Oracle 11 client, you are not able to access new Oracle 11 functionality, correct? The only way to get Oracle 11 functionality is to have both the database and client upgraded to the 11 version, correct?

Joel: My organization should be able to leave the Oracle10g connection information intact if we upgrade the Oracle server to 11g, but leave the clients at 10g? Is there new functionality of Oracle11g that would not be available if we leave Oracle Client at 10g on the client machines? Is the Oracle10g Client compatible with Oracle 12g, so we would be able to leave the connection information as is with an upgrade of Oracle Server to 12g? Your help and feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

To All ArcSDE Users: My organization is in the process of upgrading the Oracle database from 10g to 11g. As a result the Direct Connection information will need to be changed on tens of thousands of connections within our mxds, because the Service parameter needs to be changed from sde:oracle10g to sde:oracle11g. In order to avoid this vast amount of work in the future, I was wondering if this information can be stored as an Environmental Variable that would be read in when the mxd is opened up. In this way, when my organization upgrades the Oracle database in the future, only the Environmental Variable would need to be modified. Any help or hints are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

To All Flex API Developers: I have a Reverse Proxy environment setup to allow a GIS web application to be accessible to the general public. Using the FlexViewer, I needed to use the crossdomain.xml file to allow the web application through the Reverse Proxy server. My question is do I need to also use a crossdomain.xml file when I am using the Flex API? Any help or hints are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

To usmanaleem: I did not mention it in the post, but I also tried with the /s at the end and the dialog box still popped up. In addition, I thought the /s would only stop the success pop-up box from appearing indicating whether the dll was registered successfully or not. To agray1: I tried with the version set to 10.0 as you mention, but the dialog box still appears. Can either of you see the behavior of registering this dll without the dialog box appearing on your machines? Thanks for your assistance.

To All ArcGIS Developers: I have watched an ESRI Deployment video as well as read ESRI v10 Resource Help and I created a bat file as follows which should just register a dll on a machine where ArcGIS Desktop is installed: C:\Program Files\Common Files\ArcGIS\bin\ESRIRegAsm.exe C:\GIS_Testing\Test_Editor\Register_Testing\County.GIS.TestEditor.dll /p:desktop When I run this bat file a dialog box pops up asking me which Registered ArcGIS installation I want to register this dll with. I thought I already specified this option with the "/p:desktop" parameter. Why is this option ignored? I first ran the following bat file to create a reg file to be installed with the custom application: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\RegAsm.exe C:\GIS_Testing\Test_Editor\Register_Testing\County.GIS.TestEditor.dll /p:desktop /codebase /regfile:C:\GIS_Testing\Test_Editor\Register_Testing\County.GIS.TestEditor.dll.reg The dialog box also pops up here asking which Registered ArcGIS installation I want to register this dll with? Again I had supplied this parameter so I do not understand why the software is still asking me for this information? Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

To All ArcGIS Developers: I have taken over the editing of a .NET application that I need to upgrade to work in v10. The exe file from the code currently works in ArcGIS v9.3.1. When I open the sln in Visual Studio and check the references it says that it can not find this dll. Does anyone know where I would find this dll as I thought Visual Studio is able to find references on the development machine? I have the Desktop Developer kit and VBA Developer Resources installed on this machine. Any help or hints are greatly appreciated. Thank you.
