Merging a Map
You can merge a map from one map source file to another map source file.
Merging a map copies the map itself and all of the maps that are related by
functional map references to that map.
Note When you merge a map, if any of the related maps already exist in the target map
file, a prompt warning appears, giving you the option to overwrite the existing
maps.
To merge a map by dragging
1 In the Navigator, select the map(s) you want to merge.
2 Press Shift, and drag the map name to the folder of the target map source file.

system and select the source file to which you want to merge the map.
