Other ways to access spatial data

You can access spatial data files directly through the “My computer” node in the “Data sources” area of the “SpatialManager” palette in Spatial Manager™ for GstarCAD. However, to access spatial databases or spatial stores, you should always use UDSs (“Standard” and “Professional” editions only).
