Using simple point with ArcGIS Desktop

1. Start ArcCatalog and ArcMap.
2. In ArcCatalog, browse to the ArcGIS installation folder and locate the Developer Kit's Samples\Data\SimplePointData\ folder (you will see a Points dataset).
3. In ArcCatalog's tree-view, expand the feature dataset to view the contained datasets.
4. Drag the Points dataset onto ArcMap.
5. In ArcMap, use the layer's properties to change the renderer to a "Unique values renderer." Use the values from the ColumnOne field.
6. Examine the layer's attribute table, identify and apply the selection on the layer.

Using simple point with ArcGIS Engine

1. Use this command in an application with a MapControl or PageLayoutControl, and a ToolbarControl.
2. Add the command to the ToolbarControl. The command (Add SimplePoint layer) can be found in the .NET Samples category.
3. Run the application.
4. Click the Add SimplePoint layer command. The OpenSimplePointDlg dialog box appears.
5. Click the Open Simple Point Data button to browse for Simple Point data datasets. Use Points in \Samples\data\SimplePointData.
