Hai, <br><br> Thanks for ur response, but, I tried this earlier. The layer description from my mapfile is given below:<br>
------------------------------------------<br>
LAYER<br>
GROUP "GenFac"<br>
NAME genfac<br>
TYPE POINT<br>
STATUS OFF<br>
DATA "mydata/genfac.shp"<br>
LABELCACHE ON<br>
LABELITEM discr <br>
CLASS<br>
NAME "GenFac"<br>
STYLE<br>
SYMBOL "star"<br>
SIZE 10<br>
COLOR 000 165 255<br>
END<br>
END<br>
END <br>-------------------------<br>
The corresponding attribute table field for the genfac.shp is discr.
The contents in the attribute table field "discr" is not seems
visible. Where I really missed? Anything else should I setup in
mapfile, or in any other files?<br><br><br> <div class="gmail_quote">2008/5/28 Luca Casagrande <<a href="mailto:luca.casagrande@gmail.com">luca.casagrande@gmail.com</a>>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

</div>For each layer, set the LABELITEM tag for the column that holds the names.<br>
