Greetings, I am creating an editing application which the end user will use to manage their geographic and tabular data. Each feature that the user creates can have zero to many associated activitities which are contained in a standalone table. The user is given the option to create or delete instances in the activity table that relates back to their edit feature. So far the application works pretty well. I am able to edit features and attributes in the feature layer and add or delete records in the standalone table. However, it apears that each time I gather the activity records that are associated with each feature, none of the activity records that I have either added or deleted have been updated in the standalone table. It's really strange. It's clear that the records are being recorded in ArcCat. I can add a bunch of records using the interface that I created, but if I close and open the interface (thus pulling the related records from the Activities table once agein) none of the new records are displayed. It get's stranger though. If I close and open the application, all of the edits that I made in the last application session are available. I need to be able to have these edits update instantaniously. The code that I am using to add new activities is: activityTable.applyEdits([ activity ], null, null); activityTable.refresh(); The code I use to remove records is: var ary:Array = selectedRecord as Array; incidentVoteTable.applyEdits(null, null, ary); incidentVoteTable.refresh(); Are there any glaring errors in my approach?

Greetings, I am trying to write a dynamic search tool that loads all of the layer's querying and reporting dependencies into an XML file. I have done pretty good so far but ran into a problem with the date field. The dates get converted into seconds since new years in like 1970 or something. I suppose I could flag any date fields in the XML file but it doing this would make for a pretty messy schema. I am getting the attributes using the following simplified logic: var grAttributes:Object = graphic.attributes; for (fld in grAttributes) {     //I want to test to see what the field type is here so that I     //can convert the date vaue to something readable.     var strValue:String = grAttributes[fld].toString(); } Any ideas how I can get this informaiton at runtime?

Greetings Everyone, I am trying to create a very simple edit tool for non-GIS users to develop and manage their own datasets. I have a user that would like to develop a parcel based dataset without having to get into the ins and outs of topology and complex editing. I would like to design a tool that allows the user to select a parcel and commit it to another parcel based layer. Is a workflow like this possible with the esri:Editor class?

Greetings Everyone, I am creating an edit widget and would like to extend different editing capabilities to different feature layers. I have two layers that I would like to create and modify features and attributes for. I also have a third layer that I would like to allow the user to only edit the attributes for. For consistency sake I would like the user to be forced to select and activate the feature template of the layer that they are modifying. Is this level of control available in the esri:Editor class? Any pointers or thoughts on how I could achieve this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tyler Waring ... View more

Greetings,              I just logged onto ArcGIS Explorer Online for the first time the other day. I was not asked to agree to any license agreement. Is there any such agreement and if so could someone direct me to it? Thanks, Tyler ... View more

Greetings Everyone,            I am trying to implement some simple editing capabilities in my Sample Flex Viewer 2.2 site but with no luck. I have created a msd with an editing template using desktop 10.0 and published it with ArcGIS server 10.0 as a feature server service by checking on the Feature Access option under the Capabilities section. However, the whole Editor object is kind of a black box to me and I am having a hard time understanding what it wants that I am not giving it. When I run my test to prove simple editing functionality I get the following error: "TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at com.esri.ags.components::Editor/map_mouseUpHandler() '; Another symptom is that when I test the out of the box EditWidget, no templates load. I only get a widget with a "Select template to create feature:" label and nothing else. I am having a hard time figuring out what I am doing wrong. Any kind pointers will be greatly appreciated.
