Can't use the las dataset toolbar because it is grayed out.  Why?

Did you check the help topic on working with las data ? A toolbar normally remains greyed out when either an extension hasn't been toggled on or the required object hasn't been selected in the table of contents... like a las dataset

It was the extension:  3d Analyst!  Thank you.  I had it toggled on to start with, don't know how it went away.  If only I knew 1/4 as much as you do things would be so much better right now.  The LAS article was helpful...and maybe more so as the project proceeds.  I looked at the program "help" files, but the mostly don't make sense.  

How am I going to learn this program real quick?

I just spent three hours trying to solve this. It was the extension! Why aren't they just automatically on if your licence level allows for it!? Thanks for getting this on the forum!

That would be the case in ArcGIS Pro... not arcmap
