The geoprocessor object is a bit slow but lets you do this by writing very little code. Try passing your joined feature class into the example below. The alternative is to roll your own export routine that would copy the data line by line to the necessary format. The more general it needs to be the more code you need to write, but isn't that always the case 🙂 private bool CreateFC(IFeatureClass featureClass)         {             //THIS CREATES THE AN EMPTY FEATURE CLASS WITH ALL NEEDED FIELDS IN THE TEMP FWS             IFeatureWorkspace TempFWS = CreateFWS(); //Create the feature workspace that you need, lots of examples online             if(TempFWS == null) return false;             TempFWS.CreateFeatureClass("YourFcName", featureClass.Fields, null, null, esriFeatureType.esriFTSimple, featureClass.ShapeFieldName, "");             //THIS POPULATES THE FC WITH ALL THE FEATURES             Geoprocessor gp = new Geoprocessor(); //starts a GEOprocess.             gp.SetEnvironmentValue("workspace", "<path + geodb name>"); //sets the geodb to use (ex. C:\GIS\temp.mdb)             gp.AddOutputsToMap = false;             ESRI.ArcGIS.DataManagementTools.Append append = new ESRI.ArcGIS.DataManagementTools.Append(); //this tool uploads the feature class             append.inputs = featureClass;             append.target = "Path + geodb name + layer name";                 // example: System.IO.Path.GetTempPath() + @"\" + temp.mdb + @"\" + LayerName;             try             {                 gp.Execute(append, null);             }             catch (Exception ex)             {                 MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());                 return false;             }             return true;         } ...

The IMemoryRelationshipClassFactory object you create is not an actual feature class but an in memory join that points to the source datasets. Since you are pulling data from an SDE the .mxd can not find the source. You can manually save the layer by right-clicking it and choosing Data > Export Data and then save as a feature class on disk. Or write some code to export it to disk. ... View more

When creating COM tools for prior releases of ArcMap I would maintain a copy of the .NET reference folder on my dev machine for other 9.x versions . Then in Visual Studio go to the project properties page and under Reference Paths choose the folder of the references you want to use. I have not tried this is 10.x but I suspect that combined with the above workaround it would work. In 10.0 the default location of the ArcObjects references is: C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\DeveloperKit10.0\DotNet This assumes you are properly licensed for each version you compile for. ...

Sui- I noticed you have never accepted an answer to your posted questions. I'm not in the hunt for any point awards, but I'm sure there are many here who would appreciate some recognition for using their valuable time to help you. ... View more

So is it working ok now? You seem to be doing it right. Use the template to build the ITool, then hide it from the toolbar. Because it is a COM tool you can access it by the GUID. It doesn't need to be re-registered at runtime. It gets registered when it is installed. Then it is available to you when ArcMap starts via the GUID. ... View more

Are you using Visual Studio? There are templates in VS to create custom tools for ArcMap. You can create them as COM extensions (need an installer to deploy) or using the newer Add-in framework. I recommend the Add-in method because it makes deployment much easier. It looks like your code is attempting to use the COM method. There is a lot more to it than what you have and yes it has to be registered. Do you have the template? ... View more

That really depends on what you are trying to do. Are you trying to return information from a feature clicked in the map? Trying to pop up a context menu when user right-clicks? It's all different. Please define what you are trying to acheive. A typical scenario is the need to capture the location when a user left-click the map. To accomplish this I create a ITool that the user activates prior to clicking. The ITool provides event handlers such as OnMouseUp that you can add code to. ... View more

Are you using ArcEngine?  I assumed you were since you were trying to use the IMapControl. That interface is for accessing the map of an ArcEngine control. ... View more

Sui- I don't think you want to get a reference to your IMapControl2 object using the new keyword. I think you need to query interface from an existing object. Something like this: IMapControl4 mapControl = axMapControl1.Object as IMapControl4; Do you have an axMapControl1 object somewhere? ... View more
