Getting non-registered table from ArcGIS Mobile 10

[SergioGalindo]

Hi,

Is there anyway of accessing a database table (i mean not registered on the geodatabase) from an ArcGIS Mobile 10 application (running on Windows 7)?

Thanks in advance,

sg

Sergio,

There is currently no direct support for related or stand-alone tables in ArcGIS Mobile. This is something we're working hard to implement at a future release (TBD). There is a possible work-around you could try, please see this link: http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=5950d9790c794a3bb37c5ed70ddc2a6a

Cheers,

Thanks a lot Martin!

There are two other options. You can turn your table into a feature layer with null geometry. Or you can create you own sync process. This involves creating a custom web service that would process the data being uploaded and well as have some mechanism (time stamp fields) to then push down any changes to the devices local copy of the tables.

Hi Melinda,

Could you expand on the ability of allowing null geometry when capturing a feature into a feature class. I am using the out-of-the-box ArcGIS Mobile on a Windows Mobile device (Trimble Juno). If i start collecting the feature and edit the attributes, the Save option is only available after collecting geometry as well. So how exactly do you save in this instance or is this practice only available if you are coding a custom ArcGIS mobile application?

Thanks,

Alan
