Hi,
I try to build a tool that gives information on a selected feature and it's related table?
Is it possible to do programatically with arcobjects?

Yes, it's possible.  What information are you trying to get about the feature and its table?   And what language are you using vba/.net/java?

I don't know if you two already resolved this issue but I think I have a similar problem. I would like to access the related table form with a custom button instead of going to the related table tab and then clicking the blue plus icon (the latter can be seen in attachment "arcpadrelatedtables.JPG").
I know that different pages within the editform can be accessed with vb code such as:

layer.forms("editform").pages("page2").activate

Looking at the axf file in ArcPad Studio, it appears that "TableForm" is a child element of "EditForm" and that "TableForm" itself has "Page" child elements. (see attachment "arcpadstudiorelatedtables.JPG") Does anyone know if there is an means within the object model to access this form such as:

layer.forms("editform").TABLEFORMS("Lights").show

or

layer.forms("editform").TABLEFORMS("Lights").pages("Lights").activate

?

I'm using VBA to create a custom identify tool that selects a point and populates the attributes in a custom form.  I have accomplished this using the code from the thread listed below.  I have several tables that relate to this point feature, as well as pictures, based on certain fields in the attribute table.  I would like to add the related tables and also an image that is associated with that point.

I understand that 12 years have passed, but maybe you steel have the code of your custom identify tool and can share it?

Hi, I'm also looking at accessing records in a related table, but have found very little info. This thread [HTML]http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/22638-Help-on-lt-TABLEFORM-gt-element[/HTML] has a small amount of information on accessing form controls, but nothing about the recordset. Is the documentation bug mentioned fixed?
