Missing QSWATRef2012.mdb – Unable to Run ArcSWAT

[Anmol Singh]

Hello SWAT Team,

I have just started learning SWAT and installed ArcSWAT by following the official installation instructions. I successfully downloaded and extracted all the required SWAT folders; however, I am unable to find the file QSWATRef2012.mdb in any of the extracted directories.

Because this file is missing, ArcSWAT is not working properly on my system. I have attached screenshots showing the folder structure and the files currently available on my computer.

Could you please advise where I can download QSWATRef2012.mdb, or let me know if it is included in a specific ArcSWAT package or database that I may have missed?

I would really appreciate any guidance or help.

Thank you very much for your time and support.

Regards,
Anmol Singh

Sorry about this: I hope it will be fixed soon.

Download and install QSWAT and QSWATRef2012.mdb will be in
C:\SWAT\SWATEditor\Databases.

Thank you, Chris and Nancy.

It worked successfully. I was also watching the SWAT instructional videos and noticed that the examples they mention are missing from the database as well.
