I have a very old 9.3 system. Users check out data, edit data and check in. Few days ago, users reported that they cannot check out. I found that the versioning of data is unregistered, so I enabled the versioning. Now, the users reported they cannot check in, "The feature is mutually exclusive. Cannot update shape." is shown. How can I resolve the problem. ... View more

I have generated feature-linked annotation by "Export Label to Annotation" in ArcGIS Pro. Now I have to shift the positions of the annotations. I have tried to make a standalone program by ArcObjects but failed to open the annotation feature class. How can I do so by ArcGIS Pro SDK? ... View more

I have a point feature class A and another point feature class with text field B. Both feature classes can be joined by common field XFM_ID. How can I create a feature-linked annotation class C from feature class B so the annotations are linked to feature class A? ... View more

I have developed a program to call the "Export To CAD" geoprocessing tool to export the feature classes in personal geodatabase to AutoCAD DWG files. Below are the codes: private static void ExportToCADByGP(string mdbPath, string fcs, string outputType, string outputFile, string ignorePathsInTables = "Use_Filenames_in_Tables", string appendToExistingFiles = "Overwrite_Existing_Files", string seedFile = "") { int i; IGeoProcessor gp = null; IGPUtilities gpUtils; IVariantArray parameters; StringBuilder gpMsg; try { gp = new GeoProcessor(); gp.SetEnvironmentValue("workspace", mdbPath); parameters = new VarArray(); parameters.Add(fcs); parameters.Add(outputType); parameters.Add(outputFile); if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(ignorePathsInTables)) { parameters.Add(ignorePathsInTables); parameters.Add(appendToExistingFiles); parameters.Add(seedFile); } gp.Execute("ExportCAD_conversion", parameters, null); parameters.RemoveAll(); gp.ClearMessages(); gpUtils = new GPUtilities(); gpUtils.ReleaseInternals(); Marshal.ReleaseComObject(parameters); Marshal.ReleaseComObject(gpUtils); } catch (Exception ex) { if (gp == null) { Logger.Debug("ExportCAD: " + ex.Message); } else { gpMsg = new StringBuilder("Error running Export to CAD\r\n"); for (i = 0; i < gp.MessageCount; i++) gpMsg.AppendLine(gp.GetMessage(i)); Logger.Debug("ExportCAD: " + gpMsg.ToString()); } } } But when I ran the problem, the exception below occurred occasionally: Executing: ExportCAD D:\Export\Temp\F_MAIN.shp;D:\Export\Temp\R_MAIN.shp;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_AIRVALVE;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_CPI;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_FITTING;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_FLOWCTLVALVE;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_HYDRANT;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MANHOLE;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MANHOLE_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_METER;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MISC_PT;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MISCINSTALL_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MSC_LN;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_PUMPSTN_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_SVCRSVRTNK_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_TRTWKS_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_AIRVALVE;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_CPI;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_FITTING;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_FLOWCTLVALVE;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_HYDRANT;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_MANHOLE;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_MANHOLE_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_METER;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_MISC_PT;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_MISCINSTALL_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_PUMPSTN_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_SVCRSVRTNK_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_RESERVOIR_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_TRTWKS_PY;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_TEMP_POINT;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_TEMP_POINT;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_ANNO_POINT;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_TEMP_LINE;D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_TEMP_LINE DWG_R2000 D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG Ignore_Filenames_in_Tables Overwrite_Existing_Files D:\Export\Temp\template.dwg Start Time: Thu Dec 2 10:03:49 2021 ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\F_MAIN.shp to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\R_MAIN.shp to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_AIRVALVE to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_CPI to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_FITTING to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_FLOWCTLVALVE to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_HYDRANT to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MANHOLE to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MANHOLE_PY to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_METER to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MISC_PT to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MISCINSTALL_PY to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_MSC_LN to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_PUMPSTN_PY to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_SVCRSVRTNK_PY to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\F_TRTWKS_PY to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_AIRVALVE to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_CPI to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_FITTING to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_FLOWCTLVALVE to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_HYDRANT to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_MANHOLE to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_MANHOLE_PY to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_METER to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_MISC_PT to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ...Exporting D:\Export\Temp\temp.mdb\R_MISCINSTALL_PY to CAD .....exporting to D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG ERROR 000508: Unable to create D:\Jimmy\F07-SW-16A.DWG: Failure During Save Failed to execute (ExportCAD).

I have tried to use IGxDialog to open shapefiles by the codes below: public static string getInputFile() {     string filename;     IEnumGxObject enumGxObj;     IGxObject gxObj;     IGxObjectFilterCollection gxFilterColl;     IGxDialog gxDialog;     IGxObjectFilter gxObjFilter;     filename = "";     try     {         gxDialog = new GxDialog();         gxFilterColl = (IGxObjectFilterCollection)gxDialog;         gxDialog.AllowMultiSelect = false;         gxObjFilter = new GxFilterShapefiles();         //gxDialog.ObjectFilter = gxObjFilter;         gxFilterColl.AddFilter(gxObjFilter, true);         if (gxDialog.DoModalOpen(0, out enumGxObj))         {             gxObj = enumGxObj.Next();             filename = gxObj.FullName;             Logger.Debug("getInputFile filename = " + filename);         }     }     catch (Exception ex)     {         Logger.Debug("getInputFile error: " + ex.Message);     }     return filename; } But when the GxDialog is opened, the shapefiles are not found.
