2.2.3Creating a Background File in GIS DataPRO

A status of available memory will be available to provide information on how much information can be attached to a job. Memory used in background files will affect the amount of map data that can be collected, so be conservative in your estimates.

A successful attachment will be shown in the Status column and Memory Available will be recalculated.
