Dear Friends,

I had a problem during the Weather Data Definition input data into
SWAT software. For instance, I cant upload those data (rainfall data,
temperature data, relative humidity data, solar radiation data and
wind speed data) into SWAT software. The errors shows 'The table does
not have correct fields'. Due to this errors and what should I do now?
What is the coreect format of input data in SWAT? At this moment, the
format was OID, DATE, PCP. Please help me on this. I really do
appreciate on your comments. Please friends.

I ran into a similar problem with any dbf or text file input. Never
figured it out, I had to use the data installed with SWAT. I am using
Arc 9.3 on a 64bit Vista System. I am using the SWAT beta version that
is still being developed for Arc 9.3. Any ideas on fixes would be
appreciated.

Hi

The pcp data is actually not uploaded. the table containing the name
of the pcp file is uploaded. the correct format is ID, Name (string
max 8 characters), XPR, YPR and elevation. the name field must contain
the exact name of the table where pcp data is located. this format is
same for temperature, solar radiation, humidity and wind speed as
well. for pcp file, the format is date and pcp (f5.1).

hello everybody,
 Before running SWAT, I have created folder for weather files. It includes rain(DBF), Temp (DBF), WSRI (DBF) and rain  (Xls), Temp (Xls) files. After giving address of datafiles if  I click ok it gives error of "Wrong class for parameter 1 of request ReturnValue.Gota(n) Nil, expected a(n) Field" then click ok it gives another error "A(n) Nil object does not recognise request Not"
I dont understand. Please tell me how to get rid of error.
Thanks
Sachin
