Everytime I try to open the file in arcmap, the program says it can't find the file. I have connected the map where the file currently is stored to ArcCatalog.&nbsp;</P><P>Now the problem is that everytime I try to set the data source to the map I have connected to ArcCatalog it won't change.&nbsp;</P><P></P><P>I am pretty new to GIS, but usually adding layerfiles to arcmap goes without problems. Does anyone have any tips?</P><P></P><P>Kind regards,</P><P>Masha</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 06 Feb 2020 15:10:05 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/set-data-source-doesn-t-work/m-p/310851#M17748 MashaBarycheva 2020-02-06T15:10:05Z Re: Set data source doesn't work https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/set-data-source-doesn-t-work/m-p/310852#M17749 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Do you know how the layer file was created (Pro vs ArcMap)?
