All modelbuilder gurus, I was trying to develop some logic in model builder, gave up and did it with Python but I was wondering if what I wanted to do was even achievable in modelbuilder? I'm using ArcGIS 10 and no I don't want to use the multiple buffers tool that does not iteratively buffer the last buffer, but you'll understand when you read below. I start off with a single polygon in a layer, buffer it, then clip it using a coastline polygon layer and the result of the clip then becomes the input for the whole process again and to repeat this X number of times. This gives you the output as shown in the image below (which I achieved using Python to control the flow of logic). I wanted to initially do it in Modelbuilder so the client could understand. I had created a model controlled with a FOR iterator ( 1 to 5 in my case) and the main buffer and clip logic but I could not see how the resulting clip became the new polygon to be buffered? Is this possible using modelbuilder? Duncan

Ella, Have you exposed the outputs of your sub-models as parameters? You need to do that in each sub model then when you drag 'n' drop into the master model they will appear so you can link them. Duncan

The same interface offers this method QueryNearestPoint that will give you the point.

Helen, If it were me I would call the Geoprocessing tool FeatureClass to FeatureClass but if you want to use IExportOp then your problem may be down to how you reference your layer. Did you use IGeoFeatureLayer and the property DisplayFeatureClass this includes joined fields? Duncan

Jason, If you want to find the distance only then try using the IProximityOperator Interface, a lot easier to use (i.e. less parameters to worry about). Although a Point in a polygon will return zero so you will want to cast your polygon into a polyline. Duncan

Shea, Short answer is no. I just had to put up with ArcMap failing after X iterations (can't remember how many but only a few thousands). Duncan

All (especially ESRI), I'm at a cross road with upgrading to 10.1 but some of my clients are locked into 9.x or 10.0. With the release of 10.0 ESRI offered the AddIN, this is great and makes life a lot easier. But I have concerns about compatibility. Can an AddIN built in 10.1 be installed and run in 10.0 assuming it does not use functionality specific to 10.1? I came across this thread here but no-one seems to have had any success. So whats the official line on this? 10.1 AddIns are not compatible with 10.0? I hope not!
