When you select a BizTalk Server map in Microsoft® Visual Studio 2005 Solution Explorer, two distinct sets of properties are associated with the selected map, where each set of properties is examined and set in its own way. Some properties are specific to map files and are set in a Property Pages dialog box. Others properties are common to many BizTalk Server items, and are set in the Visual Studio 2005 Properties window.
This section discusses the former set of properties. These properties are used for map validation and testing, and are unique to the selected map in the context of a particular BizTalk project.
The following table shows the properties that you can examine and set in the Property Pages dialog box that is displayed when you right-click a map in Visual Studio 2005 Solution Explorer and click Properties on the context menu.
