The Error Inspector lets you view topology errors in a table that tells you the rules violated, the feature class or classes involved in the errors, the geometry of the errors, the feature IDs of the features involved in the errors, and whether or not the errors have been marked as exceptions. You can sort the errors by any of the fields in the table so that you can work with all the errors of a given type. You can also limit the errors shown in the table to errors of a given type, errors that occur in the currently visible map extent, or errors that have been marked as exceptions.
In addition to letting you view and sort errors, the Error Inspector lets you select errors, pan or zoom to selected errors, and apply topology fixes of various types to errors. The Error Inspector also allows you to use keyboard shortcuts.
