Adding new feature using coordinates

[AhmedDD]

Hi all

How can I create a new polygon feature using coordinates, The goal is to allow an end user to enter the coordinates of the polygon and then create the feature and save into a SDE SQLServer DB, is it possible?

any help will be greatly appreciated

Regards

You can create new features by code. there is a sample here : http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/silverlight-api/samples/start.htm#AddGraphics

To store them in the GDB, you need to set up a feature server and allow editing for this server. But there is nothing specific because the user enters the coordinates manually.
