| Apr 15, 2014 at 10:38 | comment | added | Madacify | @AlexTereshenkov the Coverage Toolboxes are in place. Managed to run straight from System Toolbox, but doesn't do what I wanted it to. Going on a limb here, but do you have any suggestion on what I can do for my previous question? gis.stackexchange.com/questions/93134/… | |

| Apr 15, 2014 at 10:20 | comment | added | Madacify | For some reason, even when I run the Conversion tool straight from the toolbox - To Coverage - Feature Class to Coverage, the only output I get after it is another point feature class. Am I misunderstanding the word/tool Coverage? | |
| Apr 15, 2014 at 10:18 | comment | added | Madacify | @PolyGeo, - tried to link my previous question. Thought using Coverage would be a good solution, and that's why I was trying to see how I can run it. gis.stackexchange.com/questions/93134/… | |

The Generate (Coverage) tool converts an ASCII file in a particular format to coverage format. Coverages started to go out of vogue about 15 years ago and are rarely seen nowadays - are you sure that is the format that you want to create? | |
| Apr 15, 2014 at 10:11 | comment | added | Alex Tereshenkov | You don't have access to the Coverage toolbox (try opening ArcToolbox window instead and check if you have Coverage Tools there). Also check if you have C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.2\ArcToolbox\Toolboxes\Coverage Tools.tbx at place. In 10.0 at least you need to install ArcINFO Workstation to get access to the Coverage tools. | |

| Apr 15, 2014 at 10:07 | comment | added | Madacify | @nmtoken trying to convert point feature class to a polygon covering the entire area. My previous question refers to what I'm trying to do. | |
| Apr 15, 2014 at 10:05 | comment | added | Madacify | Posted the picture below. Double clicking doesn't help either and nothing comes up still | |
| Apr 15, 2014 at 10:04 | comment | added | nmtoken | What data are you trying to convert to a coverage? | |

| Apr 15, 2014 at 9:50 | comment | added | Alex Tereshenkov | Can you supply a picture of how the icon for the tool and the Coverage toolbox look for you in ArcToolbox? What happens when you click twice on the tool? Any message? | |
| Apr 15, 2014 at 9:46 | comment | added | Madacify | Nothing comes up really. I heard it could give you an error, but for me it simply does not open at all. I am meant to tick any extensions? | |
| Apr 15, 2014 at 9:44 | comment | added | Alex Tereshenkov | Would you clarify what happens when you run the tool please? | |
