[mapguide-users] Uploading Shapefile to Map for Immediate DisplayProblem

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

The delete is easy with MaestroAPI:
con.DeleteResource(...resourceId...);
The MapGuideAPI has something similar.

The edit is tough.
If you are looking for a Web UI, try looking at WebStudio (bundled with 
MapGuide).
If you are looking for a client side UI, try customizing Maestro.

Both projects are licensed under the LGPL license, and should thus be 
usable from other projects.
If you have needs to customize Maestro for better use by your 
application, you can create a feature request ticket,
and I'll try to make it happen. (Patches are always welcome).

What are the problems with the Refresh() call?
Have you tried FireBug for Firefox to examine the problem?
