Adding base layer

[KempHarper]

I am trying to add a base layer however when I select add data and the drop down menu pops up it will not allow me to select the base layer option. I have added a layer through Arc Catalog through the GIS Servers menu so I am assuming it is a problem directly with adding a base layer command. Thank you.

Kemp,

Are you trying to add a basemap and are you using ArcMap? Please give more specifics and maybe a screenshot.
