The first error message is telling you what's wrong. You trying to use a variable materialType, but haven't defined it. You first need a statement like materialType = 'plastic'. I'm also not sure you should have the % sign right next to the variable name - % materialType instead of %materialType. Maybe that's ok. You may want to consider the more recent method of formatting strings: Qry = "Material = {0}".format(materialType) ... View more

Regular folders need the file extension. As for whether the tool will work with 9.3, I don't know but arcpy was introduced at 10.0. Never used the older gp method, so can't say what works and what doesn't. ... View more

I don't know if 9.3 supports mosaic to new raster, but the help for 10.2 uses two rasters as input. Anyway, since these rasters are coming from and going to a folder rather than a .gdb, they need the file extensions. ... View more

Feature to Point would give you a point for each polygon with the polygon attributes, but I take it that's not what you're looking for... ... View more

I don't know either, but you get the same behavior on every field. I put the table in a file gdb, same thing. Added an OID field, same. ... View more

The Align to Edge tool should be on the Topology toolbar, the Align to Shape on the Advanced Editing toolbar. If not, Click the Customize menu, Customize mode, Commands tab. In the Categories pane, click Advanced Edit Tools, then in the Commands pane, drag the Align to Shape command to the toolbar. In the Topology category, do the same for the Align to Edge command. ...

Though it may be tricky to get all of the auxiliary files if you are using os.rename(), right?  I assume that it's not just "raster.tif", but also "raster.tif.xml" and "raster.tfw", or .jpg, etc.  If you use the arcpy function, it'll rename all of the associated files at once.  Also, if the rasters are stored in a fGDB or something, I don't there's anyway you'd be able to access them with the os module.  It all depends on how/where they are stored. I've never used it before, but the Rename function that I linked to above looks super useful. You may be right. I've used os.rename on rasters, but using os.listdir(). Rename in your link does look promising. ... View more

If you're importing os anyway, you can also use os.rename() rather than copying the raster. Rest is what James & Adam wrote about getting the name correctly. for ras in arcpy.ListRasters():         if ras.lower.endswith("_pa"):                     basename = ras.split("_pa")[0]                 newrastername = "pa_" + basename                 os.rename(ras, newrastername) ...
