[UW-GIS-L] can't view ArcInfo raster in ArcMap 9.2

I've heard it's the rrd aux problem. I am generating several
generations of grids using the same name with AI scripts, then
checking them in AM. Even if I kill the old version in AI and make
new ones with same name, I guess the rrd and aux files stick around,
screwing up AM. This is making directory housekeeping a nightmare! If
I remember to delete the old rrd aux files, this seems to work ok.

thanks!
