I'm using mapserver 3.6 with a parcel map. In a seperate access database =
i have information about the users of these parcels. A parcel can have =
more then one user so i can't add the name of the user in the shape dbf. =
In version 3.6 it isn't possible to use the "join" commando so that's no =
option.

Of course it is possible to query the access database and get all the =
parcel id's from the parcels form a specific user. What is the easiest =
way to get these parcels shown in the map?
