Hi,

We are using Microstrategy BI tool and are trying to implement US MSA map (metropolitan statistical area) using ESRI.

This is first time we are using ESRI and not sure how to start.

Following are few information on our project.

ESRI has been configured in microstrategy and ready for use
our requirement is to show sales numbers for each of the MSA in a USA map
we have a microstartegy attribute which represents the MSA elements

We need to know the following.

as MSA is not available as a standard region in ESRI, how do we geocode
do we need to use shape file or longitude/latitude
how do we create shape file
or how do we get longitude/latitude information

how do we use shape file or longitude/latitude for geo coding
how do we configure US MSA map and use the same in MSTR document

basically, we are trying to implement this for the first time and do not know how to start and what should be available to start.

Please share any information/document on the same.

Thank you for your help.
