Version 10.1 ArcGIS Desktop and ArcReader are completely compatible. With that, PMFs are forward, but not backwards compatible. You could create a PMF in ArcGIS 10.0 and use this in ArcReader 10.1, but you could not create a PMF in ArcGIS 10.1 and use it in ArcReader 10.0. With that, SP1 for 10.1 should be available next week. ... View more

It all depends on what geography your rainfall data were collected in (i.e. zip code, county, some other boundary). You will need to get a shapefile/feature class of the boundaries in the map. Once you have this, you can add the Excel document to the map. Then, you will need to do a table join to get the data from the Excel spreadsheet into the shapefile. You can then symbolize your shapefile based on the data in your Excel spreadsheet. ... View more

I would first create a raster dataset from your sample points using one of our Interpolation tools. Once you have a raster dataset, you can use our Contour tool. Both of these will require the Spatial Analyst extension. ... View more

So the tool runs correctly but you want to change the spatial reference? It will output in WGS 1984, being that this is what your GPS is gathering the data in. You should then be able to use the Project tool (not define projection) to get it into the new coordinate system. What coordinate system are you trying to convert it to? ... View more

I'm not 100% clear on what you are asking, but if you save a style file to your C drive, you should be able to just copy that out to your server location. If you are using the Export Map Styles tool, you can also output a style file to any location, so if you have a mapped network drive or a UNC path to your server, you can just store it there and other users can access it. Otherwise, you can also save symbology in layer files and just select your output location to be on the server. ... View more

Hi Bahnya, If you right click the toolbox the model is saved in (in version 10.1) and then select to save as 10.0 toolbox, can you see/use it in version 10.0? -Luke ... View more

You could try searching for a PDF Printer. It won't give you a PNG or JPG, however. ... View more

Another idea would be a spatial join, where the polygon is the join feature and the point is the target feature. That way, you can get the County and State info from the polygon layer into the point layer. Then, you just need to compare the two. I would create a two new fields, one called CountyCheck and another called StateCheck. These would be Text fields. Then, just do an if/else statement with the Field Calculator to see if field A == Field B. For example: Dim equal If [FieldA] == [Fieldb] Then   equal = "yes" else   equal = "no" end if ...

I'd start by trying the Buffer Wizard if you haven't done so already. It will basically create a series of buffers around the lines. If you make them so that each is just slightly larger than the last and set the color to go from a dark grey to a light grey, you might be able to get the same effect. The hyperlink explains how to access the tool. You have to go through the Customize Window and add the tool to an existing toolbar. ... View more

It depends on how you are creating your points I guess. If you use the new Geotagged Photos to Points tool in 10.1 and then Share As a service to AGOL, then it should work. That tool creates a point feature class with photos as feature class attachments, and they should show up in HTML pop ups in ArcMap and in AGOL web map. ... View more

I think you are running into the following bug which resurfaced at 10.1: NIM081790: When batch geocoding or locating addresses and instersections in the geocoding toolbar and Find tool, an address locator based on the Dual Range locator style does not return matches or candidates when city, state, or zip fields are not mapped. Try this workaround: 1. In ArcCatalog or the Catalog window, right-click the address locator 2. Click Properties�?� 3. In the Geocoding Options section change 'Match with no zones' from �??no�?� to �??yes�?� ... View more

Is this with ArcGIS Desktop or ArcGIS Explorer? Which version? Does the table add but just not display what you expected, or what exactly is going on? ... View more

Yeah, it looks like most related issues I can find are with the ESRI folders in the user profile. So it sounds like you already did this, but if not, rename the ESRI folders to ESRI_old in the following places: -C:/Users/YourUsername/AppData/Roaming/ESRI -Start > Run > regedit (enter) > HKey Current User > Software > ESRI Also, try logging into the machine with a completely different user profile (you could create a test profile). I'd also make sure that Internet Explorer is set as your default web browser. ... View more

Hi Jason, Could you use the Raster Calculator to subtract DEM_1 from DEM_2? You would need the Spatial Analyst extension for this. You could also use the Minus Tool if you have Spatial Analyst or 3D Analyst (and this might be more straight forward). ... View more
