[Bryce Mertz]

We have been using the new Map production tool for ArcMap10 and love it.  It
works great.

Hey Scott,

The current VBA version of the Map Production tool will continue to work in
ArcMap 10.  We have also developed the next version of the Map Production
tools which work using Python and those are available to use right now.  At
this point however I would recommend staying with the VBA tools.  The new
python tools are a bit slower and not as intuitive to install/configure.
If anyone else has anything to say about this please chime in.  

 

At 10.1 (which will supposedly be released in January) ESRI will no longer
support any VBA tools so we won't have a choice.  Also at 10.1 ESRI makes it
REALLY easy to install/Configure the python tools.  So. again, my
recommendation is to stay with the VBA tools until you plan to migrate to
10.1.  

 

I do know that Deschutes, Lane, Polk, and Clackamas counties are using (or
at least testing) the new python tools in 10.0 with success.  But as I
mentioned installation and configuration was not very easy.

 

We have 10.1 beta installed at Deschutes County and I have already migrated
the tools to work with it. so the Map Production tools be ready to go
whenever it is released.   I hope to give a demo of the new 10.0/10.1 Map
Production tools at the next ORMAP tech users group meeting.

 

Let me know if you have any more questions.
