Hello, I upgraded to ArcGIS 10 a year or so ago, but I still have some maps that were originally made in 9.3. When I open them in 10, the ruler in layout view does not show up. The ruler bar is there but it only has one line on it, not the whole ruler. I did figure out how to fix it once, but for the life of me I can't figure it out now. I've spent way too much time beating my head against the wall trying to fix this thing. Can anyone help? Please! Thanks,

Thanks Tim. This has been seriously bugging me since switching to 10. Why did ESRI think putting a toolbar in the way of making edits would help? They couldn't leave well enough alone? X2, only ESRI could come up with something so annoying that actually can figure out where you want to put your next vertex and then proceed to block you with an annoying, useless mini tool bar that you have to more or delete before you can proceed with your editing! Bravo ESRI, and please continue to find ways to annoy me. Thanks for helping me figure out how to get rid of that thing!

I am trying to figure out how I can copy the symbology representation from a point geodatabase file to another point geodatabase file with the same attributes. The symbology displays the point differently based on one attribute field. I have tried doing it in Arc Catalog by importing representation from a .lyr file, but it does not work. It does not change how the point is displayed based on the attribute, it just displays all the points the same way. Any idea how to do this, or should I just forget geodatabases all together and go back to the much easier to work with shape files? Thanks,

I looked that up, and I think that will work for me. Thanks for the suggestion

So is there any other way that is easier to store symbology for a layer besides using layer files?

Thanks Sean

Thanks for the reply, The main reason I use layer files is to save my layer properties (mainly symbology and labels). I think what you are saying is that can't be done in a geodatabase, so I should simply have a different file tree with layer files in it to store my symbology. Thanks,

Thanks for the reply, I have the importing shapefiles into the geodatabase figured out, I just can't figure out how to import my layer files into the geodatabase, but it sounds like that is not possible (although it will let me do this if I save the layer file to the default geodatabase, so that must not be entirely accurate). So if you can't save layer files in the geodatabase do you just save them elsewhere? That just seams kind of clunky if you ask me. I like having everything in one place.

Hello, I am trying to do what ESRI wants me to and switch over from using shapefiles to using geodatabases in ArcEditor 10.0. I can't figure out how to move layer files or make new layer files in a geodatabase. The closest I can get is to go to "save as layer file" and save it in the "default geodatabase" file that was set up automatically, but once the layer file is in the default geodatabase, I can't move it into any other geodatabase. Any Suggestions? Maybe I'll just stick to shapefiles, I still don't see the value of switching.

Is anyone making geologic cross sections in ArcEditor 10? I am looking to make simple geologic cross sections and am looking for suggestions. I have been primarily trying to figure out Jennifer Carrell's Xacto Xsection geoprocessing model, with little luck. The model is found here: http://resources.arcgis.com/gallery/file/geoprocessing/details?entryID=C83CC388-1422-2418-7F10-B4D3DF5F1EE6 Any advice would be helpful, Thanks
