Thanks Sean Jones‌, The main issue I am having is getting around this line of code:  IFeature inFeature = (IFeature)obj; This causes problems when an edit in a Table or something that isn't a 'Feature' occurs.  Currently I'm just wrapping a Try...Catch around it, but is there a better way to do this??  With the help you gave me with the ArcGIS Pro version of this tool I am creating, I was able to subscribe to certain layers, but with ArcMap it looks like this code will run on any row edit/Create.  Is that right?? protected override void OnStartup() { IEditor theEditor = ArcMap.Editor; Events.OnStartEditing += new IEditEvents_OnStartEditingEventHandler(Events_OnStartEditing); Events.OnStopEditing += new IEditEvents_OnStopEditingEventHandler(Events_OnStopEditing); } void Events_OnStartEditing() { //Since features of shapefiles, coverages, and so on, cannot be validated, ignore wiring //events for them. if (ArcMap.Editor.EditWorkspace.Type != esriWorkspaceType.esriFileSystemWorkspace) { //Wire OnCreateFeature edit event. Events.OnCreateFeature += new IEditEvents_OnCreateFeatureEventHandler (Events_OnCreateChangeFeature); //Wire onChangeFeature edit event. Events.OnChangeFeature += new IEditEvents_OnChangeFeatureEventHandler (Events_OnCreateChangeFeature); } } //Invoked when a feature is created or modified. void Events_OnCreateChangeFeature(ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IObject obj) { try { IFeature inFeature = (IFeature)obj; try { ITable inTable = obj.Table; IVersionedObject3 vObject = (IVersionedObject3)inTable; if (vObject.IsRegisteredAsVersioned) if (inFeature.Fields.FindField("LASTUSER") != -1 && inFeature.Fields.FindField("DATEMODIFIED") != -1) { //MessageBox.Show("Fields found....this will be edited."); inFeature.set_Value(inFeature.Fields.FindField("LASTUSER"), System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name); inFeature.set_Value(inFeature.Fields.FindField("DATEMODIFIED"), DateTime.Now.ToString()); return; } else { //MessageBox.Show("Fields not found"); return; } } catch (Exception ex) { //MessageBox.Show("Not versioned!!"); return; } } catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString(), "Not a valid Feature"); } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ...

Yes, you will need to: 1.  add the Image to your project (I normally use .PNG but I think other formats will work too) 2.  as Gintautas said, make the Build Action 'AddInContent' 3.  modify the Config.daml to reference the image from step #1. ... View more

A great idea.  I also have had many issues when having many tables/maps in the same .aprx file.  It often gets very confusing. Even a toggle button within the Options to enable/disable only viewing the tables for selected maps would be great. ... View more

Thanks Kory.  Yes, that kind of works, but still a bit of a mucky way of dealing with tables/maps. Christina Lindsay‌, making an ArcGIS Idea out of this is a great idea! ... View more

Thanks Daniel, Do you know if this 'History' can be updated manually?  It appears as if it gets updated after a Geoprocessing Tool or another tool in a Toolbox is run, but what I want to do is add entries as custom .NET Add-Ins run. I'm looking at the HistoryProjectItem class, but can't seem to figure it out.  https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/sdk/api-reference/#topic11042.html ... View more

Nice!!  Here is the final code: //This checks to make sure the layer is Versioned private bool IsVersioned(FeatureLayer fLayer) { try { //Use this to avoid errors on Layers with Joined Tables if (fLayer.GetTable().IsJoinedTable()) { Join theJoin = fLayer.GetTable().GetJoin(); Table theTable = theJoin.GetOriginTable(); Geodatabase tableGDB = (Geodatabase)theTable.GetDatastore(); if (tableGDB.IsVersioningSupported()) return true; else return false; } Geodatabase theGDB = (Geodatabase)fLayer.GetFeatureClass().GetDatastore(); if (theGDB.IsVersioningSupported()) { //MessageBox.Show("Yes, versioning supported for " + fLayer.URI); return true; } return false; } catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString(), "Error in 'IsVersioned' procedure:"); return false; } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Thanks for your help! ...

Hi Rich, Well I've found a compromise that pretty much works, although not perfectly.  Doing this.... //This checks to make sure the layer is Versioned private bool IsVersioned(FeatureLayer fLayer) { try { //Use this to avoid errors on Joined Tables...not really checking if Versioned, but the next best thing if (fLayer.GetTable().IsJoinedTable()) { if (fLayer.IsEditable) return true; else return false; } Geodatabase theGDB = (Geodatabase)fLayer.GetFeatureClass().GetDatastore(); if (theGDB.IsVersioningSupported()) { //MessageBox.Show("Yes, versioning supported for " + fLayer.URI); return true; } return false; } catch (Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString(), "Error in 'IsVersioned' procedure:"); return false; } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ ...seems to work.  In our situation the worse that will happen is some fields in a joined shapefile or PGDB might also get flagged as 'Versioned', but it's not a huge problem.  At least the SDE Feature Classes with joins will still get picked up. ...

Hi Rich, So is it any type of Join that will cause the 'Datastore' to be invalid??  I have also tried with a join to a FGDB table, and still get the same error - Datastore is invalid. Is there a way to determine if a layer with a join is Versioned?? Basically I'm creating a tool to 'watch' for edits on layers as they happen (ie. RowChangedEvent, etc.).  But I only need to watch for edits on valid layers, which are layers in our Corporate SDE....so Versioned layers.  I figured checking to see if the layer is Versioned would be the easiest way of doing this, but when joins are present things don't work although edits could still be happening. Any ideas on the best work-around for this?? ... View more

Hi Rich, Basically what I am doing is parsing the Connection String to see if the current layer is versioned.  Is there a better way of doing this (ie. figuring out if a layer is versioned or not)?? ... View more

Ummmm....not quite sure what you are asking for.  If all you want to do is open the application from MS Access using VBA, then you could try something like this: https://www.techonthenet.com/access/modules/other_app.php There is no VB6 dll for ArcGIS Pro. ... View more
