Attribute window sometimes freezes and doesn't let me enter data

[MattMiley]

I am using the editor widget and my editor template is pretty big, its got a date picker and 4 drop down choosers and a bunch of empty fields for text only, if I tab through it it works pretty nicely, but if i click each box sometimes it just freezes up and doesn't let me enter any data and it wont let me do anything for like a minute or too, then it lets me click the close only.

Has anyone experienced anything like this?

I think it could be a internet connection problem, cuz when I work on it from my office that is VPNed into the gis server it would happen whenever the vpn looses connection temporarily it freezes like that. But it did the same thing when i was at the server's domian and not using the VPN, so im not sure whats going on.

Hello,
I am not sure if I am having the same problem, but this is the closest string I have seen so far.  I am having an issue entering data into the attributes fields.  I want to edit attributes, and so I click in the field, begin typing, nothing happens.  I feel that it isn't a keyboard or mouse issue, as it never happens when entering data into the find window, only the attribute window.  I have fully removed and reinstalled Arc 10, recreated my profile, and even logged in as another user, and it still does it.  It is really hindering my job, as I have to try up to three times to enter data before it will take it, for each field.  No other users at my office are having this issue.  Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Tiffany

What version of the API are you using? Can you share us some code and steps to reproduce the issue?
Thanks.

Jennifer, according to its status, NIM063509 is still open.  I confirmed this with support as i had also read it was fixed prior to 2.2 but this does not appear to be case.  This is a bug that really needs fixing (if it does still exist). 

I'm running v.2.2.

Something of interest to you is:  Home > ArcGIS Viewer for Microsoft Silverlight > User Forums > ArcGIS Viewer for ... > Edit Trouble as it provides some insight into the issue.

Apologies for delay in following this up.

Hi Brad,

After doing some research, the bug NIM063509 was verified fixed in the Silverlight API v2.2 release. However, in the v2.2 release new functionality was added for types/sub-types which also uses coded value domains and a new �??similar�?� bug got introduced: NIM070962. Both are different issues with almost identical use-cases and this has caused some confusion among the users.

Status: both issues are now fixed at v3.0 beta1 and the forthcoming v2.3 release.

Hope this helps,
