Hi Drew,
Here are some more details:
- The database is SQL.
- The two tables are in the same database.
- I don't know. The GIS director performed the operation. (I know very little about ArcMap, as I have never really had a chance to use it.)
- This is being done on our ArcGIS Server.
- The first time it was attempted, ArcMap just closed. The second time, I didn't have time to read the message on the screen.
The view of the two tables was published as a map service with a random layer, as it would not publish without a layer. I had shown the director your instructions on how to publish the table as a map document, but was told it needed to be a map service in order for me to access it.
