Dynamic Geocoding won't update.

I created a dynamic geocode in a file geodatabase, but when I append new records to the original table in the file nothing happens to the dynamic geocode point file. I tried it both outside and inside an editing session. And neither works. Am I missing a step?

Where does your table exist, in the fgdb as well?

Yes the table and the Geo-coded points feature class are in the same File Geo-database.

What version of ArcGIS are you using and what type of locator?

I'm using ArcGIS 10 SP2, and a composite locator with a General - Single field locator for parcel addresses, combined with 2 US Address - Dual Range locators, for street center line data.

I do confess that I am doing this in 10.0 SP3 but I can't reproduce this.  If possible you can try to upgrade to 10.0 SP3?  If not, can you send me your data and I can see if I can reproduce it.

I upgraded to SP3 and tried another dynamic geocode and it's still not updating when I add a new record to the table. Do you want me to send you my file geodatabase that I'm using?

Sure.  You can send it to me here:

Apparently I had an address locator that was looking for a zone field. I didn't have a zone field in my table and I assumed I could just leave the zone field empty and it would ignore that when geocoding. It did work to geocode but was stopping the dynamic functionality. I added a zone field and set it for a blank space so it wasn't NULL and that fixed the problem. Thanks Brad.

I'm having similar issues trying to use a dynamic geocode. Is it possible to do this with the following work flow?

SQL Table --> Linked in Personal Geodatabase (through Access) --> Geocode Service --> Output feature class (in same mdb)

Based on what I've read it seems that in theory it would function but I am not having success in seeing updates reflected to the feature class upon adding or editing the SQL Table.
