Is there a guide to using the 2.0 BETA viewer? Maybe I'm being to impatient and need to wait for the full release? Thanks! Hi C Pennington, Please review the Concepts help doc on the ArcGIS Viewer for Flex Resource Center. Its contents is still in beta, but there is some useful information about the Viewer. Hope this helps,

Hi Sean, What kind of error(s) are you getting? Can you provide some screen captures? What release versions are the geodatabases? Was it working previously and then it just stopped? If so, did something happen in-between this occurrence? FYI: Technically the Geodatabase Toolset (GDBT) is an unsupported developer sample extension.

... I understand that terminology is sometimes established for historical reasons that are no longer applicable ... This is exactly what happened from the ArcGIS 9.2 release to the current release. ... I'm not trying to shoot the messenger... you are probably not the one who decided on this terminology. But maybe if I express my frustration to enough messengers, ESRI will realize how confusing the usage is, and clarify documentation by making references to Personal and Workgroup database servers more explicit... Thanks for understanding and I agree with you. 🙂 ... I found the PDF I referred to above as a result of searching for ESRI documentation on how to perform administration on ArcSDE geodatabases on SQL Server 2005. Can you point me to more detailed information that pertains to enterprise gdb's? ... Absolutely, here are some resources: 5 Best Practices for Maintaining an ArcSDE Geodatabase - Instructional podcast An overview of tuning an ArcSDE geodatabase - Help documentation FAQ: What are some common ArcSDE SQL Server tuning tasks? - ESRI KB doc Also, are you using a "regular" map service or an optimized map service? In other words, is the source file for your map service a .mxd file or a .msd file? The latter .msd file, which is an optimized map document is strongly recommended. FYI: Publishing optimized map services Hope this helps,

Hi David, Does this mean I have to create another parallel geodatabase with the same structure, or can I somehow create "folders" within the same geodatabase, one to contain Smallville data, and another for Gotham? Actually, you can do either option. It really depends on the requirements of your business workflow(s) and what you want to do. Option 1: Have 2 separate geodatabases, one for each city. This enables each city to have and be able to maintain their own geodatabase, independent of each other. Option 2: Have a single geodatabase, with 2 feature datasets (these are conceptually similar to "folders" - but contain data that are spatially related), one for each city. In this case, all GIS data is stored in one location, but the cities share ownership and access to the geodatabase. This book is a good resource for learning about geodatabase design: Modeling Our World 2nd Edition by ESRI Press. Hope this helps,

Hi Lars, The "Administration" submenu you're looking for is only available when you right-click an ArcSDE geodatabase implemented on SQL Server Express (aka. Personal or Workgroup ArcSDE geodatabases, also collectively referred to as "Database Servers"). This functionality is available because ArcSDE geodatabases implemented on SQL Server Express were designed to be managed within ArcCatalog. What are database servers in ArcGIS? A quick tour of administering database servers Based on what you've described, it sounds like you're working with an Enterprise ArcSDE geodatabase implemented on SQL Server 2005. In which case, some administration is performed within ArcCatalog (e.g., the Analyze option for feature datasets, stand-alone feature classes, and tables), and some is performed within the DBMS management tools. Connections in ArcCatalog to enterprise ArcSDE geodatabases do not have an "Administration" submenu option - so what you are seeing is expected. Hope this helps,

Hi there, You heard correctly. At this time, there is no GDBT release for ArcGIS 10. Please note that the GDBT has always been an unsupported developer sample. ... how can we get this reinstated for the new version? I suggest that you vote for this functionality on the ESRI Ideas.com site. It has already been posted (in several forms) as an enhancement request: 1. Give me a GUI for ArcSDE 2. SDE Dashboard 3. Merge GDBT, MXDPERFSTAT, GDBDesigner, GDBDiagrammer, GDBReporter into ONE extension FYI: one of Jack's ESRI UC preconference questions addressed the GDBT Q: Will the geodatabase toolset become part of core ArcGIS Desktop? Hope this helps,

Hi Kevin, Answer is yes. As Vince mentioned, there were probably some structural changes to the internal geodatabase schemas between 9.4 Beta1 and 10.0 final. This would apply to all types of geodatabases. Hope this helps,

Hi Jack, In Windows Explorer, right-click on the File geodatabase file (e.g., [nameofgeodatabase].gdb) > Properties. Verify that it is not set to be "read-only". Hope this helps,

Hi Stephanie, One of these developer samples might address what you're looking for. They enable the creation of a visual "schema-diagram" of the contents of a geodatabase: 1. ArcGIS Diagrammer 9.2/9.3 2. Geodatabase Diagrammer for ArcGIS 9 3. Geodatabase Reporter.NET (9.2) Hope this helps,

Hi Stephanie, Your statement is correct. A File geodatabase can only be edited using ArcGIS Desktop. An MS Access personal geodatabase (which is implemented on an MS Access file) can be edited using Microsoft Access - but is not officially recommended. FYI: if you are going to start a new project, I recommend that you use a File geodatabase over an MS Access personal geodatabase. Please see this ArcUser article, Top 9 Reasons to Use a File Geodatabase Hope this helps,
