Hi All,
My problem has been resolved thanks to David.
He mailed me an mxd file from where I executed the code.
It was 100% successful. Once more thanks for your help.
If anyone needs it, I'm ready to send it over.
Kind Regards,
Losso Ekolo

Losso,
That's strange. This time I attached an mxd file with a button that
should launch the form. Maybe the form became corrupt when it was
emailed. Did you receive any error messages when you tried to run the
program?

David,
It seems you left out the code.
Because it can't run it both 9 & 9.1
I did an extensive search on Esri Forum but couldn't get a solution.
I'll appreciate you patience.
Regards,
Losso

Losso,
You can give this a try, it was written with 9.1 but should probably
work with 9.0.
Attached is a form, you will have to import it into your mxd. You
should select your grid first, or you can go through all the features at
once. When you launch it, you select the feature class and then the
field name that has the image in it. I didn't know how your images were
stored. If they are just a geotiff then they don't have a bunch of
associated extra files with it. Jpegs on the other hand might have
three files that need to be copied. So that's why I chose to only
accept image names, and then you manually select the different
extensions for the images. I hope that makes sense. If the file
already exists in the "to" folder, then the program automatically
overwrites it.
The code is pretty simple, and the function to copy the images is
separated from cycling through the features, so you can change that
around based on your image field.
You could also check out the downloads section, or even the forums for
other scripts to do this.

Hi David,
Sorry, I forgot to mention that I'm using ArGIS 9.
The code you sent works fine for simple copy.
I don't have a programming background.
I want a code that will copy based on a criteria or a table.
Something like:
For Each Record/Name
IN Grid_Index
For Each Image/Name
If Grid_Index.Name = Image_Name.Name
Copy files to New Destination
Loop
Regards,
Losso

Losso,
What software are you using? This could be done fairly easily using vba
in ArcMap. You can copy files using vba:
Public Sub copyFile()
Dim SourceFile As String
Dim Destination As String
SourceFile = "c: est.xls"
Destination = "c: empcopiedTest.xls"
FileCopy SourceFile, Destination
End Sub

Hi Listers, I don't know if anyone knows of a script or a tool that I
can use to extract Aerial photo programmatically from a directory after
clipping the Grid index .My workflow looks as follows:
1. Select features from layer (Sheet_Index) that intersects with
features from layer (Study_Area)
2. Export select features to new feature class (Study_Area_Sheet_Index)
3. Select and copy corresponding sheets (based on attribute field
Sheet_Number) to directory B.
I know this can be done manually but it is very time consuming
especially when you're working with over 350 Sheets.
Alternatively, I created a raster catalogue but it doesn't suit the
purpose because, time and again I'll have to extract sheets for
different areas to be used in different projects. I'll appreciate you
suggestions.
