Hello,

does anybody know how to sync the data collected with arcpad to an SDE in arcmap?

Thank you.

I can't answer your question since I haven't done a sync with SDE (I still use shape files with ArcPad)   but it may help the next person to know the version of ArcPad and the version or ArcSDE your are using.

Hi Ali,

I am the same as Rebecca in terms of still using shapefiles with ArcPad (I have a little bit of a trust issue and I need more 'control' on my end to make sure that things are going smoothly).

I believe to check in and check out data with your SDE is the same as you would for a geodatabase (using the check in and check out tools from the ArcPad Data Manager). I always had issues with this since there was not much versatility in doing this (it all had to be from the exact same machine and nothing could be different).

There are some resources out there for this process. Take a look at this forum post:

Depending on what version of ArcPad you have, take a look at this really old support file (using ArcPad 7, but the process is likely still the same):

32862 - Check Out/In data from ArcMap to ArcPad for editing

And, in case you are using online feature services, this is a nice blog post on how to update those:
