Lawrence,

I think you want to read over:

http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/reference/vector_data/VirtualSpatialData

This should really be referenced from the

   http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/ogr_howto

document too!  I knew the material existed but I it took me a while to find it.

Best regards
