Hi Jeff, I don't believe the.layer file, as it is, can be loaded into MapGuide. I suppose it could be tweaked/modified to match the xml structure of a layer def in MapGuide, and then pushed into MapGuide via the MapAgent tool. But the easist method is probably just publishing the layer directly to MapGuide from AutoCAD Map. Hope this helps. Warren M

Map3D 2009 documentation discusses the .layer file ( http://images.autodesk.com/adsk/files/autocad_map_3d_user_s_guide.pdf#page=571). This is a handy way to preserve your symbology/thematic maps and data connections to GIS data such as shapefiles. The end user can just drag and drop the .layer into the Display Manager of Map3D and assuming you haven't broken the link to the shapefile by moving it, you should have thematic map. I was told this .layer file can also be used with MapGuide but I don't see how I can load into MapGuide Studio or where to upload the file into MapGuide Server.
