Any methods for auto calculating northing easting on point creation in a state plane database? Attribute assistant? 

Thanks, 

Joe

I think I know what you are looking for but try explaining what your trying to do in less extravagant terms

Robert, I have a northing and easting fields already (x,y) in the database featureclasses, US state plane Survey ft. I'm trying to have it attribute the x,y on creation of the point.  I can currently calculate the geometry for the fields after creating numerous points in a featureclass; say like hydrants or valves, but I want to save time by having them auto generate on creation like my unique ID or feature Id fields do. in which I use attribute assistant for.

hope that helps.

AH,

I have the same issue.  I worked around it by creating a python script from model builder and then adding it as a button.
