Just wondering if anyone has used a MSSQL 2008 data source as described in
this link

Hello List,
I have a map file that contains multiple shape files for parcels that
are separated by townships meaning that I have 9 shape files that
comprise different geographical regions of one governmental entity.
I would like to give the user the ability to have a search function that
If you combine all 9 shape datasets in 1 tileindex layer insetad of 9
separate layers
(see http://mapserver.org/optimization/tileindex.html)
then the search should go through all single shapes and retrieve all
parcels. I think that also the suggest definition works (with
connectiontype=ms) with
the *attribute* search in p.mapper is independent of the current map
extent since it's not applied on the map object before running the
queryByAttribute() method (there's no difference between normal shape
layers and tileindex layers). So it uses the default extent defined in
the map file.
