Saw this while searching for a way to buy an ESRI notebook after the UC.  This has been a wish of mine for a long time and came up with a clunky but effective work-around: I add a text box to the layout, off-map, and make any needed reminders in it.  Usually about some labeling hack or special legend formatting that I will have forgotten the next time the map needs updating.  It has worked well for me. ...

A work-around is to re-set the 'full extent' of the data frame; it may take a little experimenting but for address points I found a starting scale of 12,500 works well.

Thank you again for the information, klf ... View more

Hi Mike - Yes, the credential information for the SDE connection has been saved - in fact, the geodatabase connection is still present when I access the 'Add Content' function, and it works.  I walked through the process again, re-saved, closed & re-opened, and the newly added layer is invalid again.  Most puzzling! ...
