I heard that SDE command line functionality will NOT be supported in
64-bit machines. Can you shed some light on this?
Thanks

Subject: shrug-l: Editing Spatial Extent - Summary
Thanks to all those that responded to my question about ways to edit the
spatial extents for a Feature Class or Feature Dataset once created. The
long and short of it is you can't just simple edit the spatial extents
unless the data is stored in an enterprise SDE geodatabase. Even then
you have to do it through a command line.
Several folks we able to suggest some work arounds. I thought I would
pass some of them along.
Export to xml, and edit it there. Of course you'd have to get rid of the
layer and bring it back somehow, but it could be scripted. - Eric

Create a new polygon and then draw it to where you know that all of your
data falls inside and then import it's coordinate system to the layer
you are editing. It works. I used that method when I was working for
Gulf Islands National Seashore and because we have barrier islands that
go from here in Florida all the way down to Mississippi, I would have
that problem when trying to create maps of recreational areas et. al.
So I just manually created a polygon and then drew its boundaries around
all of the islands. Then I imported it's coordinate system to all of
the layers I was editing. - Jeffrey Reed
