Hi,
I want to create a single shape file from multiple mxd's that have
multiple frame sets with different extents in them. I have found/
started a script to do this (attached) but can't figure out how to
write the captured X&Y Max/Min into the shape file that is created for
this. See output below. I also want it to write the scale and title of
the frame as well as the file name of the mxd.
Would appreciate your help in completing this script.
Thanks,
