Selecting Features from Map Service in ArcMap

[BruceBurwell]

Hello

I have created a map service using ArcServer 10.1 and loaded it back into Arcmap to use. However, the Select Features tool is greyed out as well as Select by Attributes and Select by Location under the Selection tool. Do I need tio enable something when I create the service? I tried using the Feature Access option but that didn't work.

Also, can you not use Feature Access with File Geodatabase's?

you can give feature access in capabilites and you can choose fine-grained control (query, editing, editor tracking ect) of your map service for selection in arcmap. You cannot use fgdb for publish feature service (see for details http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1/0154/0154000002w8000000.htm )
