Setting the data source

This is similar to setting the data source of a layer that has a broken link. This is required when you either move your map document to a new location that cannot find the AOI data source or move the database that has the AOI data source feature class.

Steps:

1. Start ArcMap.
2. On the main menu, click Customize > Toolbars > MPS Atlas.
3. Click the MPS Atlas window button on the MPS Atlas toolbar.

   The MPS Atlas window appears.

4. Right-click the map sheet and click Set Data Source.

   The Set Data Source dialog box appears. The map sheets with an incorrect data source paths are marked with a red X.
5. Optionally, click the Sources drop-down arrow and choose a data source type.
6. Optionally, to view only invalid data sources, check the Show Invalid Data Sources Only check box.

   This removes all valid data sources from the list on the Set Data Source dialog box.

7. Click Change Version if you want to change data source versions.
8. Click to highlight one of the table items.
9. Click Change Data Source.

   The Select Data Source dialog box appears.

10. Navigate to the feature class you want to associate with the item you selected.
11. Click OK.
12. If the Choose Repair Option dialog box appears, choose one of the following options:
    • Apply to all matching Paths—Applies the repaired path to any invalid workspace paths that match the path corrected in step 10.
    • Apply to all matching Types—Applies the repaired path to anything that matches the type you chose in the Sources drop-down list. For example, if you repaired a feature layer data source, you could apply the new path to all other feature layers listed in the Set Data Source dialog box.
    • Apply to selected Item only—Applies the repaired path to the selected row in the Set Data Source dialog box.
13. Click OK to close the Choose Repair Option dialog box.
14. The Set Data Source dialog box appears.

    The red X changes to a green check mark if the path is correct.
15. Click OK.
