No edit operation is in progress

[ArinStark]

Using a versioned SDE layer that is part of a geometric network.  Edit session is started in ArcMap, then code is run to split line segments over a certain length.  When "Store" method is called to save attributes on newly created split segment, above message (No edit operation is in progress) is returned.  Environment is VBA ArcObjects in ArcGIS 9.3.1.  Question is:  Why does code not recognize that an edit session has been started?

Even though you are starting the editing process (i.e. IEditor.StartEditing) manually, it is necessary to bracket each operation inside calls to IEditor.StartOperation and IEditor.StopOperation for any feature layers that are in a geometric network: http://edndoc.esri.com/arcobjects/9.1/componenthelp/esriEditor/IEditor_StartOperation.htm

That got me through that particular hurdle.  Greatly appreciated.
