To begin, make sure all the files/folders for the project are contained =
in one project folder.
>From the Toolbar, Click on:
>File
>Map Properties
>Data Source Options
>Store Relative Path Names
Save Your Project. Copy that project folder to the other computer. All =
your data will source correctly.

Subject: [gislist] changing the source of data
Hi Again List --
I have a question about sending (via email or ftp) an ArcGIS 8.3 map =
with
all the files to someone who will be using a different computer. When =
I've
done this in the past, I've had to go thru and tell the program, file by
file, where the data are actually located, as opposed to where they were
when the map was created. That is, if the data are all sitting on my =
hard
drive under a folder called "data", then ArcGIS is going to look there =
for
my files. If I were to email my project to someone, then ArcGIS will =
still
continue to look on my hard-drive under the 'data' folder and I know of =
no
other way than to go thru the properties for each file in my layer and
change the source. Is there a quicker, better way? =20
Thank you.
Michele
