Errors Returned

FDO_E_INVALID_GRID_SIZE: This error can occur if the grid size of the feature class is too small to handle the feature being inserted. To avoid this error, put the feature class into load-only mode (see IFeatureClassLoad) prior to creating the insert cursor and when the inserts are completed take the feature class out of load-only mode. The geodatabase will recalculate an appropriate grid size when load-only mode is turned off.

Remarks

This method should only be called on insert cursors.
