Studio 2008 beta in order to see these new features exposed. When you
create a new Data Connection in Studio, you can now choose the SHP or SDF
providers and then configure that feature source to point to a file or
folder. The files or folders visible to choose from come directly from
external file aliases.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

on how to use the section “Configure External Files” within the MapAdmin pages?
I have created one for SHP, SDF and Raster and when I load Studio I don’t see
them. How do you use these feature sources once created as
aliases?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
