Remarks

This is only supported on fields from object classes and feature classes that are registered with the geodatabase; Personal, File or ArcSDE. 

This is not supported for shapefiles, coverages, or other data sources.

You can register a table within the geodatabase to become an object class by right-clicking on the table in ArcCatalog and clicking on "Register with Geodatabase".

The IFieldEdit::Domain method is used to associate domains when creating new fields. You should not use it to modify existing fields, for that purpose use IClassSchemaEdit::AlterDomain or ISubtypes::Domain.
