Hello.
I have a shape with points and attributes.
I would like to obtain some annotations in an annotation feature class in a file GeoDatabase.
I have difficulties with the IannotateLayerProperties
Thank you for your help.

Thank you for your help.
We made an adaptation of this code. The scenario is :
- load a geodb point feature class, as source
- load an empty geodb annotation feature class, as target
- create annotations with a fixed Symbol ID and the angle and TextString Value from the point layer
- create and populate the bonus fields
And it works ! :)
