I would suggest using a Python script to do this double looping. ... View more

Hi Paul, To suggest a possible solution I need to know: Why do you want to feed back the output of Get Count tool into the iterator? If it is false you want to continue processing what? Get Count tool only gets the count of selected records. If the selection is = 0 what do you want the model to do? ... View more

Make sure your input has the field and field values on which the selection is being made. I don't know why you are using Make Feature Layer on a selection from the iterator. You can directly connect it to the Aggregate Polygons tool. If possible share your model. ... View more

I am not sure I understand what do you mean by feedback. Are you trying to use a feedback loop with an iterator? Are you trying to branch a model based on a true branch and a false branch? Check if this blog answers your question. ... View more

HI HCarlos, Couple of things need some clarification in your model. 1. This is what Get Field Value tool does - The Get Field Value tool gets the value of the first row of a table for the specified field. 2. Why are you iterating over field values using an iterator? This is what Iterate Field Value iterator does - Iterates over each value in a field. So you are iterating over a field value row by row. 3. How and Why are you using the output of the iterator which is the value of the field in the get field value tool? Get Field Value tool will only get the value of a first row of a field. So how are you using the output of the iterator as inline variable substitution? 4. What do you want to do through this model? ... View more

yes you can use the Calculate Value tool like this: Check this blog ... View more

Hello Chris, Can you give some details such as: Are you using 10.0 sp2? Which field are you joining on? You are joining what to what? After joining what do you see. From my investigation: With Add Join tool: From your data I tried to join the table to a feature class using the idvoie field. The Null that you see are because of the the existing Null values in the feature classes idvoie field before join. Using the classant field results in just one field with Null as there is no field value "Commune de La Garenne Colombes" in the ref_voie table. With Join Field tool: I joined the table to the feature class based on the classant field and one or the records values (Sadi Carnot (rue)) which exists in both the feature class and table and yet had Null Value after Join. The reason for that is this value - Sadi Carnot (rue) has a space at the end in the feature class and no space in the ref_voie table. How to find - Start the edit session and go to that field value. Put your cursor at the start of the field value and then use the arrow to go right till the end. You will notice that at the end of the field value i.e .......) there is a trailing space like this - Sadi Carnot (rue) (<SPACE) Do the same with the table field value. You will notice there is no space - - Sadi Carnot (rue)(<NOSPACE) Trailing space differences will cause the output to have NULL values after Join. ... View more

From within ModelBuilder: You have to use the Remove Join tool to remove the join. If you save the model after running once it will save the state of all the tools and the intermediate data unless you go click model menu> delete intermediate data. or Rerun the model uptill the tool before the Add Join tool and hit validate. Now rerun the whole model. ... View more

I am sure you have made sure but just in case.. Hope you are applying the point symbology .lyr file to the point feature classes and polygon .lyr to polygon feature classes and kine  .lyr to line feature classes. ... View more

How are you exporting the selection to a shapefile? Copy Features tool? Are you setting the symbology by right ricking the output (green oval) and from Properties> Layer Symbology tab? Are you using 10? Service Pack? ... View more

Feature Class To Geodatabase tool output in ModelBuilder does not have the option to import the Layer Symbology as the output of the tool is a workspace or a feature dataset. The option to import the symbology that you see is under the data type tab to be used with the feature set data type. If you want to add the layer symbology, you can create another model with just the Iterate Feature Class Iterator and define the layer symbology to the output of the iterator.  For the input to the iterator use the geodatabase that you used to output your shapefiles. ...

I am glad you found a workaround. This is what we found from our testing: "%string%" - Works "%string%%" - Works "%%string%%" - Unfortunately fails. We will work on fixing it. Meanwhile there is another workaround. See attached image and the toolbox (version 10). ... View more
