I have some reference data that I am using for a survey i.e. sections, townships, testing areas etc. that i want to auto populate when I collect new point line or polygon data. Does anyone know the best way to do that? Any help would be appreciated.
You can write a method in the On Form Load event. Get the X,Y of the location . Then to get the point features get the distance to the point using FindNearestXY method of the Recordset object of the particular layer you are interested in. For polygon feature layer you can use the ISPointIn method to see the point is contained within which polygon . Once you get the feature yo can easily populate the fields in the form using the fielld values. Thanks Suman
