Exercise 1 - To attach a drawing file

To attach an AutoCAD drawing file

1. If you have not already done so, copy the sample files to a local folder.
2. In the build_map1.dwg file, in Display Manager, click Data > Add Drawing Data > Attach Source Drawings.
   
3. In the Define/Modify Drawing Set dialog box, click Attach.
4. Navigate to the folder where you copied the sample files and select Counties.dwg.
5. Click Add and then click OK.
6. In the Define/Modify Drawing Set dialog box, click OK to attach the drawing file to your map.
   When you attach a drawing, it is not listed in Display Manager and it does not appear in your map. However, it is listed on the Map Explorer tab of the Task Pane under Current Drawing.
   You “query in” objects from the drawing to use in your map, as demonstrated in the next exercise.
7. Save your work. Click Save AsDrawing.
