Creating a New Data Bind

Before creating a data bind, you should create a Named Connection and a Named Table or a Named View Table in Spectrum that points to the non-spatial table. For more information on Spatial Manager, refer to Spatial Manager in Spectrum Spatial documentation.

Now, you can create a data bind by associating the non-spatial table with the spatial one. To create a new data bind:

  1. Open the Data Binding tab.
  2. Click on the Create New button.
    The Create New Data Bind dialog box appears.
    Option Description
    Spatial Table Select spatial table name from the Spatial Table drop-down list.
    Column Select column name from the drop-down list.
    Linked Table Select linked table name from the Linked Table drop-down list.
    Column Select column name from the drop-down list.
    Name Enter the Data Bind name. It will be displayed on the data binding page.
    Test Click to test if the data bind is successful or not.
  3. Click on the Save button to save newly created data bind. It will be listed on the Data Binding page. You may click Cancel button to exit Create New Data Bind dialog box without saving.
    Note: Data Bind doesn't work for the tables that has DateTimeOffset.
