Your expression is correct (StreetSuffix(!FacilityAddress!)), but nothing in the code block should have '!'s. def StreetSuffix(FacilityAddress):   newString = FacilityAddress.replace('ALLEY','AL')   newString = newString.replace('AL.', 'AL')   newString = newString.replace('AVENUE', 'AV')   ....and so on   return newString I made some slight changes to the logic - I think it should work. You need to return the variable, not the function. And no need to import a library unless you use it. There are no calls to anything like re.someFunction(), so you know you don't need to import the re library. EDIT 1: yes, this type of code will replace the 'ST' in 'SHASTA'. Instead, you could include the spaces in the replace call, like: newString = FacilityAddress.replace(' ST ', ' STREET ') This will only replace 'ST' between two spaces. You could do something like this to get at ' ST' at the end of the string: if FacilityAddress[3:] == ' ST':     FacilityAddress.replace(' ST', ' STREET') Note that this will trip up in cases like "JOHN STEINBECK ST" -> "JOHN STREETEINBECK STREET" There are probably a multitude of other gotchas, so unfortunately you'll have to fine-tune along the way. EDIT 2: Now that I think of it, you're probably better off splitting the string (and later, joining back together) into a list and inspecting them individually: def StreetSuffix(FacilityAddress)    list = FacilityAddress.split()    for item in list:        item.replace('ALLEY', 'AL')        item.replace('AL.', 'AL')    return " ".join(list) ...

I don't think you can determine the unit by the magnitude of the coordinates. They are just numbers - you could make a custom coordinate system with the origin 1,000,000 times the circumference of the Earth away from your data. How did you decide that your unit is cm, other than they are large numbers? Where did you download this data from? There was surely metadata. ... View more

Here is how to loop through your drive, using Python's os module, to find all the mxds: import os for root, dirs, files in os.walk('C:/junk'):    for file in files:        if os.path.splitext(file)[1] == '.mxd':        print 'It is an MXD!' ...from here. ... View more

I'm surprised this works in your original script: for pnt in part:     if not pnt: For every time pnt exists in part, if it doesn't exist, do something. ... View more

You can run Raster to ASCII, load/modify spaced-delimited file in spreadsheet software (Excel, perhaps), then convert back to raster with ASCII to Raster. No Arc licensing required. * Xander's Python solution will avoid most of the file conversion glitches and headaches, though. ... View more

It looks like it's having trouble finding numpy. Is there a numpy folder in: C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.2\Lib\site-packages (or wherever your python is)? ... View more

You have two different cases for your dataset list: listDataSet and listDataset. These are two different things in Python. ... View more

You need to actually call the shift_features function. As it is, the script executes line 1, then executes line 3, then stops. Everything between 'def' and 'return' is a function just waiting to be called. Your script should look like this: import arcpy in_features = r"C:/Temp/CP_C06.shp" x_shift = 20 # may as well shift by some number y_shift = 50 # ditto def shift_features(in_features, x_shift, y_shift):   with arcpy.da_UpdateCursor(in_features, ['SHAPE@XY']) as cursor:     for row in cursor:       cursor.updateRow([[row[0][0] + (x_shift or 0), row[0][1] + (y_shift or 0)]])   return shift_features(in_features, x_shift, y_shift) Also, please read "Posting Code Blocks in the New GeoNet" so we can copy/paste your code to help. ...
