comment How to correctly display trees in ArcScene?
Jpeg doesn't do transparency. Did you try exporting to PNG?

comment Multiple labels for 1 point
I tried this and found some inconsistent labelling. Some points had stacked labels and sometimes the two labels were side by side (appearing concatenated).

comment Labeling text with special characters in ArcMap?
A slight refinement for the double underline. Instead of using an underline on the label font, just add a second layer in the symbol property editor (bottom left '+' button), set it to the same horizontal bar, and change the y offset appropriately. That way the two lines are identical. You could also set the point marker itself to the double bar symbol, rather than the text background. I'm not sure if it makes much difference.

This doesn't work. It looks like it should, but it doesn't.

comment Creating database for climate data with MySQL
After a closer look, you can use GDAL to read an ARC/INFO grid coverage and convert it to another format. MySQL is not in the list of supported formats for GDAL, but an ascii intermediate format will likely work for you. www.gdal.org

comment How to convert coverage (.adf) to shapefile?
Thanks for that. Based on this submitter's other questions, he is trying to download grid-based climate data from worldclim.org. So he should use GDAL over OGR, and I see now that GDAL supports grid coverages. gdal.org/frmt_various.html#AIG
