The Attributes tab is used to display and edit the attributes and associated values of the selected feature. When accessed via the Identify tool, all values are read-only. When accessed via the Feature Properties tool—or by double-tapping a feature with the Select tool—all values are read/write. An attribute that is used to define the symbology of the layer is displayed in red.
The Attributes tab for shapefile features has two columns: Property and Value.
Tap any property name to edit its associated value (if the values are read/write).
Tap any value and tap it again to edit the value (if the values are read/write).
Validation of the data is limited to adherence to the definition of the field or property. For example, ArcPad does not allow text characters to be entered into a field that has been defined as numeric. Additional validation can be performed via custom forms and, in some cases, scripts.
