now it's clearer what you are trying to do! you can use an unmanaged feature source, which means you reference a sdf file on the server which lives outside the repository.. there for you bypass webstudio...
the xml looks like, where C is a directory on your server <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <FeatureSource xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation=" FeatureSource-1.0.0.xsd"> <Provider>OSGeo.SDF</Provider> <Parameter> <Name>File</Name> <Value>c:\data\DEMO~GEOMETRY.sdf</Value> </Parameter> <Parameter> <Name>ReadOnly</Name> <Value>TRUE</Value> </Parameter> </FeatureSource> Otherwise you can use the API in .NET, PHP or Java to upload into the repository z On Dec 11, 2007 11:09 PM, Parvatha <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I am unable to load my SDF data using web studio; So i am trying someother > way.
