Hi, I am working with multiple feature classes that contain the same data.  I have a master feature class and I have created multiple feature class "subsets" of that data that I am actively working with.  When I edit the master feature class I have to go back and edit all the other "subset" feature classes. When I edit the master feature class I would like the "subset" feature classes to be updated simultaneously. Is this possible?  I have tried joining, relating, and creating a relationship class to get the results I am looking for, but have not had luck.  I may not be using these functions properly to achieve these results. Does anyone have any suggestions? THANKS!! ... View more

Hi everyone, I am creating maps of features along a highway.  I have exported a dozen other maps to PDF with the same imagery.  The section of highway before and after the one I am exporting will work fine, but for some reason this one will not.  When I export the MXD to PDF the aerial photography shows up as black!  Any suggestions for help would be great. More Info: ArcGIS 9.3.1 exporting:  600 DPI, ratio 1:3, Destination Colorspace RGB, Compress Vector Graphic's checked, Image compression deflate, Picture symbol Rasterize layers with bitmap makers/fills, Embed all document fonts checked, Export PDF layers and feature attributes, and export map georeference infomation checked. ...

I am new to this subject.  Currently, I am the only editor working on a GIS project inside a personal geodatabase.  I need to convert our data to a multi editor geodatabase, so two people can edit the same geodatabase without locking each other out.  I created a file geodatabase, but this will not fit our needs.  I believe I need to create an ArcSDE geodatabase?  If, so what would be my first step?  Any help would be great.  Thanks!    FYI:  I am using ArcMap 9.3 and have access to ArcInfo and ArcEditor. ...
