Export Territories To Trade Areas (Territory Design)
Summary

Code Sample
The following Python window script demonstrates how to use Business Analyst geoprocessing tool in immediate mode.
import arcgisscripting
gp = arcgisscripting.create()
gp.ExportTerritoriesToTradeAreas_TD("new layer", "Territories[1]", "ALL_TERRITORIES_FROM_LEVEL", "New Trade Area")
The following stand-alone script demonstrates how to use the tool.
# Import system modules
import arcgisscripting
gp = arcgisscripting.create()
# Set local variables
solution = "new layer"
level = "Territories[1]"
territory = "ALL_TERRITORIES_FROM_LEVEL"
name = "New Trade Area"
# Execute tool
gp.ExportTerritoriesToTradeAreas_TD(solution, level, territory, name)
