Licensing for geoprocessing tools
Release 9.3 Last modified April 24, 2009	Print all topics in : "Geoprocessing tool reference"

Note: This topic was updated for 9.3.1.

The core toolboxes contain a mixture of tools available with specific license levels. These are shown
in the tables below. An X means the tool is available for that license level.
