How do I link to a raster and vector data in another

Even if I just want to add the layer to the map view?Regards,

An important concept behind locations is that all maps in a location share the same projection. Different locations can have different projections. With the exception of georectification, you can only display and manipulate maps from a single location during a working session. In this way you are guaranteed (well almost guaranteed) that all your maps will share the same projection and will overlay correctly.
