Auto Increment greyed out in Control Properties

DanKlenjoski

I am working on a sign inventory application in ArcPad 10. When I create the edit control box for the ID I want, the Auto Increment check box is greyed out. I have tried everything and followed the tutorial for the Tree inventory which implements this but I cannot figure out what i am doing wrong.

All sign data I am using for the project resides in ArcSDE 10.1

Any help would be appreciated.

I think I know what is going on here....

The Auto Increment feature only works with shapefiles. So, if you use *.axf, then you're out of luck! 🙂

If you don't want to use shapefiles, then you need to write some VBA to help you maintain your IDs.

You may also want to look at a recent blog topic on ArcPad Team Blog - Incrementing ID's.

Cheers,

Take a look at the Login Form Script

or the Auto Increment Script

Hope it helps you.

Ah, that makes sense now. Thanks for the quick response. Do you have any examples of how to write a VBA to maintain my ID's? I am green in the VBA arena.

Thanks.

I used to have a project created with ArcPad 7/8, and the auto Increment function didn't work for me back in that time. I end up created a custom function to help me manage the auto increment IDs and called it when my user created a new feature.

Anyways, making sure that the field is a numeric boundfield. I hope that the option enabled if the field is a numeric type.
