Thanks for sharing your experience - I think this was a firewall issue. I have tested 9.3.1 client on the same machine as a 10.x license server and it works - just like Billy reports - with Desktop Admin's Availability report saying zero licenses available, without any extensions listed. UPDATE: I learned a fix for this will be included in ArcGIS 9.3.1 SP 2 -- so Desktop Administrator will "see" license availablity on a 10.x license server. Yay! If you're on a 9.3.1 machine, there is a workaround to check availbility, even if the the 9.3.1 client can't talk to the new license server: get a copy of the new 10.x lmutil and run lmutil -a -c @my_arc10_license_server and you get the details: lmutil - Copyright (c) 1989-2008 Acresso Software Inc.

The 10.x licenses and license manager will support 9.x Desktop and Workstation software.  The 9.x and 10.x license managers cannot be installed on the same machine. Badri, this sounds fantastic, however it is not working for us. (We're using 9.3.1sp1 client, 10.0 PR1 license server). When I use the 9.3.1 license manager and point to the 10.x license serve,r I get this message: The computer you chose is not a valid license server or is running and older version of the License Manager. Are we going to need new 10.x-style 9.x keycodes to do this? ... View more

Jim, i would be happy to test a patch if that will help. This is needed functionality! ... View more

Jesse, VBA is supported, but requires a special install. In truth, I'm trying to use VBScript, not VBA. Can someone help? ... View more

I'm having the same issue with beta 1 using script tools written in vbscript that access the geoprocessor through gpdispatch. You can add me to the list! Still having this problem. Error popup message follows: Could not create object named "esriGeoprocessing.GPDispatch.1". ArcMap 10.0 PR 1 (Build 2348) ... View more

A mole from the geoprocessing team sent me this neat example. This method could be used to generate $$XMAP and $$YMAP using the environment raster extent and cell size. Sure would be nice to include a script tool in the Arc 10 toolbox to both serve as a simple example of how to use NumpyArrayToRaster, and keep the functionality in the standard product. Otherwise the handfull of geeks that use this functionality will have to do it ourselves. Here's the (now trivial, with the example below) tool I will probably write if you don't release one: CreateLocationRaster <Out_raster> {ROWMAP | COLMAP | XMAP | YMAP} {Template_raster} ## NumPyArrayToRaster (in_array, {lower_left_corner}, ##       {x_cell_size}, {y_cell_size}, {value_to_nodata}) import os, sys, arcpy import numpy as NUM # Set path sPath = sys.path[0] outPath = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(sPath),"output") # Set environment arcpy.env.workspace = outPath arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = 1 #------------------------------------------ # Create and populate an array myArray = NUM.zeros((10,16),dtype='int16') # Fill row with row number for i in range(0,10):   myArray = i + 1 print myArray # Create a raster rowRas = arcpy.NumPyArrayToRaster(myArray) rowRas.save("rowRas") print "...saved rowras" #------------------------------------------ # Fill col with col number for j in range(0,16):   myArray[:,j] = j+1 print myArray # Create a raster colRas = arcpy.NumPyArrayToRaster(myArray) colRas.save("colRas") print "...saved colras" And here's another (certifiably cool) way to do it, sent by a USGS colleague... using the NumPy "indices" method:     import numpy as np     import arcpy     # Setup some rasters of rows and columns     # (like old $$ROWMAP and $$COLMAP)     nprows = np.indices((10,10))[0]     npcols = np.indices((10,10))[1]     # Convert the numpy arrays to ESRI rasters (ie Raster objects)     # called 'rows' and 'cols'     rows = arcpy.NumPyArrayToRaster(nprows)     cols = arcpy.NumPyArrayToRaster(npcols) ...

*** Do not write below this line *** ESRI Incident #796389 (Barbara S) - Contact - Python diagnostic message is incomplete/wrong when tool name is ambiguous Hello, Curtis, My name is Barbara and I will be assisting you with this incident report. I have duplicated this on 9.3.x, 10B2, and on a weekly build for version 10. I have filed a defect report (#NIM054814) for this behavior: [#NIM054814  Error diagnostics for the Usage geoprocessing command offers a Choices list with no choices.] Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Any map algebra expression with a dot in my experience is problematic. It's possible you may have better luck if you use Gp.Workspace so you don't need to put the ".gdb" in the path to the raster. ... View more
