    CreateDomain
    Overview


    CreateDomain is an ArcCatalog custom control that will convert a table of data into a Coded Value Domain. When launched, the user specifies which field in the table represents the Code part and which field represents the Value part. It also has the user specify the split and merge policies for the new domain. The control will then create a Coded Value Domain in the same Geodatabase with all the data from all the records in the original table.

    Requirements
    This control was written in VisualBasic 6.0 on Windows XP. It has been tested and runs with ArcCatalog 8.3 and ArcCatalog 9.0 running Windows XP. It has not been tested on any other versions of ArcCatalog or Windows. If you have troubles installing or using this custom control please use the links below to contact the author.
