Unable to Edit Replica Feature Class that Participates in a Topology

[ScottRobinson]

I have a point feature class that is stored in a feature dataset and participates in a topology in my parent GDB (SQL Express 2008).  Users can't edit the feature class that is in the replicas.  They get an error message saying they can't edit the topology.  What is the workflow to allow me to continue to have this participate in a topology and be editable in a replica GDB?

They're registered for sure.

What are the other foresters using as a license when trying to edit the replica, or is it arcinfo all the way around?

Everyone is using basic.

There ya go!

Creating or editing geodatabase topology requires an ArcEditor or ArcInfo license.

So this is a licensing issue...I was fairly certain that it didn't have anything to do with validation.

However, all hope is not lost: when you create the replica, check the advanced options and use the 'simple model'. The child GDB will contain only simple features (not your topology). Give that a try, and let me know.

That's it.  If I create simple models I don't have a problem.
