ArcSWAT Error: "SWAT2012.mdb database does not exist"

[Mandy Dzomeku]

Hi SWAT Users,

When opening my ArcSWAT project, I receive the following error message:

I am using the SWAT2012 version.

This appears even when I try opening my ArcSWAT backup file.

The project was working fine previously

I have not changed anything in terms of folder location or file structure. 


Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Mandy.

Mandy:    

If you haven’t done so already, try opening the project mdb file and edit the path in the MasterProgress table.

 

I would recommend you consider using our latest model SWAT+.  This model has up to date interfaces  and includes all the same calculations (and more) than the previous SWAT model.  We are actively supporting SWAT+.  I have included a link so you can review.
