Arc. View Project will start in different computer. But only data on floppy or network drive will display. This computer can’t see the first computers C: drive.
Arc. View Project If data on C: drive of first computer is copied to second computer… Then entire project can be viewed. The Project. apr does not store the data… It merely points to where it is stored!
