Comment on Run ArcGIS Models as Scheduled Tasks by Joel

Lee-

Workflow Manager should work. The key word is should…since I know so little about what you are trying to accomplish. I do know of some clients using Workflow Manager to automate validation for some large scale editing shops, so it very much does work.

Excellent… thank you, Jason. I implemented this cleaned up version of the function today in my script.

You’re doing quite a bit of extra work you don’t need to. First off, you don’t need to check if an item is in a set before you add it. Second, you don’t need that extra list, you can use the sorted() builtin to contruct it at the end. The simplified code would look something like this:



def getValueList (inputTable, field):

    values = set()

    rows = arcpy.SearchCursor(inputTable)

    for row in rows:

        values.add(row.getValue(field))

    return sorted(values)

I want an Ipad too. The new platform looks nice, and I’m basing this on nothing other than aesthetics. As I don’t know anything else about it. are you paddling much? i’m not…

This was Extremely helpful. The part I was missing was how the inserted data frame tied to the main frame and highlighted the selected detail.

Thanks Joel.
