<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>I am looking for some specific information on AutoDesk's SQLServer
provider. Specifically the GEOMETRY_SI_1 and GEOMETRY_SI_2 columns. </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>My research to this point: </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>1) These columns are NOT to appear in the f_metadata tables
for a feature class.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>2) If these columns do NOT exist in the feature class table
Autodesk's MAP3d product complains and abends.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>3) Mapguide Enterprise 2007 (MGE) builds an index if these coulmns
are NOT present in the table. Thusly rendering and zooming appropriatly.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>4) Mapguide Enterprise 2007 (MGE) "uses" these
columns if they are present in the table and they must be populated with the
"appropriate" values.(To this point my feature classes are < 5000
records so performance is not an issue.)</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;

outs" of populating these two(2) fields? </span></font></p>
