Display Form to Edit Feature Attributes

Is it possible to select a feature and then display a form that will edit the attributes of the selected features?  I can't find a straightforward activity to do this in workflow designer.

  You could put a link to run a workflow with argument based on objectid, in the feature description results.  I use this often that show "EDIT" link... see below.

   

  <a href="command:RunWorkflowWithArguments?workflowId=YourWorkflow_withArg_objectID&amp;inObjectID={OBJECTID}">EDIT</a>

  I don't think this is what I am looking for.  When a user selects a feature and selects edit feature the left side panel appears with the attributes to edit.  What I would like to happen is for a form to appear in the center of the screen with all the attributes and more of a form style for editing.  It can be with a workflow, but I'm not sure how to structure the workflow.

  From what you're describing, Krystal, Bill's suggestion is correct.

   

  The basic format of the workflow would be:

   

  1) Create a display form with the fields you want the user to submit values to

   

  2) Query your layer based on OBJECTID (that's where the argument in Bill's example is getting used)

   

  3) Use Assign statements to assign the user values to the feature set created from your Query Task

   

  4) Use the feature set in an Update Features activity to update your dataset
