Hi Jackie,

I am getting a little confused by all this. I am actually trying to
dynamically add a copy of a layer that already exists in the map. You see, I
already have a layer from the "Arteries.FeatureSource" in my map. I just
want to check out how dynamically created layers can be added.

So I just copied the FeatureClass and Geometry from the layer in the Studio,
and I also referred to the devguide Hydrography example. Still I have no
clue.

Could anyone take out a little time and explain it to me?

Regards,
uXuf
