Hello, First you need to create a graph template.  Here are some links to get you started: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//003300000004000000.htm http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//00330000001n000000.htm After you have that done, take a look at the Make Graph tool and Save Graph tool http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//00170000005t000000.htm http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Save_Graph/00170000005v000000/ If you want to write a python script to assist you with creating graphs, check out this: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Graph/000v0000013w000000/ Hope this helps ...

I don't believe there is any difference between the MS Access databases. If it's created by esri or if it's create my MS Access, it's all the same file.  The difference is that a spatial database has a specific set of tables in it. You can try using a library like pyodbc and look at the tables in the database.  If it has the spatial tables, then you know it's a spatial personal geodatabase. Another solution too, would be to use file geodatabases to store spatial data instead of personal geodatabases. ... View more

Check out the ListWorkspaces() and Describe data. ListWorkspaces() allows you to specify if you want to find file geodatabase, personal geodatabase, sde, etc... You can also use Describe() to get the workspace properties also. ... View more

I think you mean to use arcpy.Describe(), not DescribeData() import arcpy # Create a Describe object from the raster dataset # desc = arcpy.Describe("C:/Data/Boulder.img") # Print some raster dataset properties # print "Band Count:       %d" % desc.bandCount print "Compression Type: %s" % desc.compressionType print "Raster Format:    %s" % desc.format ...

I cannot reproduce your problem, but you failed to attached a layer file with the original name. How I performed the process: Open Arc Map Add shape file Open Arc Toolbox Open Multi Ring Buffer Saved results to shape file and set distances to 3 distances in meters Can you create a buffer in general with that layer name? Thanks ... View more

Can you post your data and layer file exactly as shown on your screenshot in a zipfile? ... View more

I think the name of your layer is causing the problem because you have unsupported characters in your layer's name. Try changing the layer's name to something simple like: "Buffer Layer" and re-run the tool. ... View more

Try adding at the top of your imports # -*- coding: cp1252 -*- # Some other code # Some simple example print "ä" I was able to use the 'import script' successfully at v10 sp1 after I added this. Hope this helps! ... View more

Scott, You can use the ArcPy mapping module to zoom to extent or pan to a feature.  Here is an example: import arcpy mxd = arcpy.mapping.MapDocument("CURRENT") df = arcpy.mapping.ListDataFrames(mxd)[0] df.zoomToSelectedFeatures() arcpy.RefreshActiveView() del mxd This should zoom to selected features. Here is a link to more information on zooming to features: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/DataFrame/00s300000003000000/ Enjoy ... View more

You can try something like this: program = "C:\\Python25\\Test\\LH-Sitekit\\sitekit\\engine\\install-nt.bat" # supply the proper input values as strings input1 = 'x' input2 = 'x' input3 = 'z' import subprocess subprocess.call([program, input1, input2, input3]) or you can just use the geoprocessing tools to create tables and featureclasses: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Create_Feature_Class/00170000002p000000/ ...

Try changing this: where_clause = "area" >= queryValue to where_clause = "\"area\" >= " + queryValue ... View more

The best place to find charting examples would be at the Silverlight Toolkit Codeplex. There you can find all kind of interactive samples with code. Here is a simple pie chart example:             <!-- Typical Use -->             <Grid Style="{StaticResource WrapperStyle}">                 <chartingToolkit:Chart Title="Typical Use">                     <chartingToolkit:Chart.Series>                         <chartingToolkit:PieSeries ItemsSource="{Binding PugetSound, Source={StaticResource City}}" IndependentValueBinding="{Binding Name}" DependentValueBinding="{Binding Population}"/>                     </chartingToolkit:Chart.Series>                 </chartingToolkit:Chart>             </Grid> Where ChartingToolkit refers to: xmlns:chartingToolkit="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls.DataVisualization.Charting;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.DataVisualization.Toolkit" Hope this helps. ...

You need to add a cross domain policy file to your server. Check out the link below to get an example of the a cross domain policy file. http://resources.arcgis.com/content/kbase?fa=articleShow&d=37035 ... View more

Use the delete tool in arctoolbox. http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Delete/001700000052000000/ ... View more

To list data from the server, you can do something like this: import arcpy from arcpy import env env.overwriteOutput = True env.workspace = r"C:\Documents and Settings\cmathers\Application Data\ESRI\ArcCatalog\OSA@sde@bay-gis.sde" fcList = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses() # Copy shapefiles to a file geodatabase # for fc in fcList:     print fc That's just one example of how you can use sde connection files.  If you wanted to reference a feature class, you could do something like this: fc = r"C:\Documents and Settings\cmathers\Application Data\ESRI\ArcCatalog\OSA@sde@bay-gis.sde\<FeatureClassName>" Hope this helps. ...
