[mapguide-users] Help needed on transfering files from ArcGIS to Mapguide

[Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S]

There is a SHP provider for FDO that should read Shape files.
The OGR Provider also reads SHP files.

If you have all the required files, you can use the "Load procedure" in 
MapGuide Studio.
This will convert the data to the SDF format, and create layers to 
display the data.
This step is not required, but might be prefered in some situations.

Regards, Kenneth, GEOGRAF A/S
