Geometry changes when attributes edited in ArcGIS Mobile

I'm completely baffled.  I used the "create mobile cache" geoprocessing tool to create a mobile cache for a point feature class in an mdb.  I make edits to the attributes only in ArcGIS mobile.  When I use the synchronize cache geoprocessing tool, it moves some of my points and stacks them on top of each other.  They are stacked on top of one feature that is in the correct location (not all to the center of the map or something).  Not all of them move. 

This has happened to me using ArcGIS Mobile on my laptop, Trimble Juno, and Juniper Mesa.  Sometimes it doesn't happen, sometimes it does. 

My project is about to go live next week so any help would be appreciated.

For anyone who is interested, here's how to reproduce:

In ArcCatalog, create a new mdb and a new point feature class in it.  Create one field that will be editable in your feature class (I just made 1 text field)  Edit in about 4 points with geometry only.  Add globalids.  Create a folder for your cache.  Save the layer in an mxd.  Run the geoprocessing tool Create Mobile Map from the mxd.  Go to ArcGIS Mobile and open the project.  Edit the attributes of the field you made only.  Close out and go back to your mxd and run the Synchronize Mobile Cache geoprocessing tool, choosing to upload changes but not download.  When you refresh your screen, some of the points will have jumped on top of other ones.

When I tried it with a gdb I did not have a problem, yet.

Hi Erica,

I was able to reproduce the issue and logged a bug for it- NIM067091.  If you have any other questions, just let me know.  Thanks!

I've had this same problem.  Has the bug been fixed?  Is it something to do with GlobalIDs not syncing right?

Just went through the same issue, where my Edited features from my Mobile device project were Synchronizing into my mxd project stacked on top of each other.

The only solution which I have found, is to store your data in a File GeoDataBase, and not in a Personal.

In Geometry we can find and  done  about field  restriction according given  value  and angle notation which line   segment used to describe the area restriction.
A line segment is a straight line segment which is part of the straight line between two points. To identify a line segment, one can write AB or . The points on each side of the line segment are referred to as the end points.
Geometry is the study of angles and triangles, perimeter, area and volume. It differs from algebra in that one develops a logical structure where mathematical relationships are proved and applied. In part 1, you will learn about the basic terms associated with Geometry.you  can also  get the help with online help about  math and Geometry.
