[Geomoose-users] question on invisible layers

[Brian Fischer]

Jim this will only work if your using GM 2.2 and I know you are using 1.6.

I don't think you can do this with 1.6 without some customization to the code.  I think what you might be thinking of is the map report.  That did allow you to pass in the layers you wanted displayed on it.

Jim,

  I think if you set
    STATUS OFF
in your map file it should work with your current config of using two map-source entries in the mapbook pointing to the same map file.
