I have a feature class that I created from a shapefile.  Its made up of a bunch of polygons that I can view in ArcMap.  I also have an SDE Table that has a lot of information for those polygons.  Multiple records for each polygon.  I created a view that joins the Feature Class to the table.  Then I created a table from that view in sql express.  Now I want the new table to be a feature class.  I spent a couple of hours with tech support.  They say "just register the table with the Geodatabase".  I tried registering it by right clicking the table in ArcCatalog.  It registers just fine, but I still can't view the geography.  Tech support suggested using the ArcToolbox window and "table to table".  That created a new table, exactly like the first one, still can't view the geography in the preview window.  So I have two questions for other users, since ESRI doesn't seem to know how their software works.  Can I do what I am trying to do?  And if so, how?
