GMS provides two options for adding GIS data: Add Shapefile Data and Add Data. The first option can be used without a license of ArcView®. The second option is only available with an ArcView® License.
GIS data cannot be imported using the Open command unlike most other data types in GMS.
Add Shapefile Data
The Data | Add Shapefile Data command allows opening shapefiles as GIS layers in GMS. The command brings up the Select Shapefile dialog which functions the same as the Open dialog. Without a license of ArcView on the computer then shapefiles are the only supported format for GIS layers. With a valid license of ArcView the Data | Add Data command is available and any of the ESRI supported formats can be opened as GIS data layers.
Add Data
The Data | Add Data command is available when ArcObjects® is enabled and uses the same dialog resource to open GIS data layers that is used by ArcView®.
When ArcObjects® is enabled, GMS is able to load any of the ESRI supported formats, including shapefiles, coverages, geodatabases, grids, images, CAD files and others, as GIS data layers.
