Arcgis Developer's Guide for Visual Basic Applications (VBA) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

New from OnWord Press, ArcGIS Developer's Guide for Visual Basic for Applications is a must for GIS professionals and students alike. This compact how-to and reference manual provides the examples, exercises, and professional tips and hints skilled ArcGIS users need for developing their own applications. No prior experience with ArcObjects is required! Each chapter of this book walks the reader step by step through the process of developing a small application, from start to finish. In this way, ArcGIS application developers are exposed to the entire code and can maintain sight of the big picture as they achieve new levels of expertise in using data windows, maps, layers, page layouts, and more! Ideal for the novice, initial chapters introduce and explain the VBA development environment; Component Object Model (COM) basics, interfaces, and applications; and critical ArcObjects elements. Experienced GIS developers will also benefit tremendously from the straightforward, no-nonsense presentation of information used as a starting point for developing their own applications.

Book News Annotation:

ArcGIS is a scalable software system for creating, managing, and analyzing geographic data. This guide reviews the basic elements of Visual Basic for Applications (VBA), the component object model (COM), and ArcObjects before explaining how to use VBA to write small ArcMap applications. Topics include error handling, building the user interface, customizing toolbars, using layers, and adding a legend.
