Why? Oh Why? - Adding a Feature I continually come up against this problem... I am trying to create a line feature and add it to the feature collection "ftrs" It's not a real map layer - it's a copy of it - so why do I continually get the message - "Operation not allowed on standalone feature object????? Dim nftr as new feature Dim ftrs As New Features Set ftrs = MapXMap.Layers.Item(ROADS_LAYER).NoFeatures 'ROADS_LAYER contains line objects nftr.Attach MapXMap ' This makes it no longer standalone nftr.Type = miFeatureTypeLine nftr.Parts.Add newPnts 'This is a collection of points making a line ftrs.Add nftr 'This should add to the collection but doesnt I dont want to add the features to a map layer. I want to build a collection of features. Anyne come across this - or can suggest what I'm doing wrong?
