Map multiple layers on one map

Hello, I am new to Mappoint - can Mappoint map multiple map layer on one map? For example can I:

Layer #1 - Map demographics
Layer #2 - Map stores
Layer #3 - Map stores sales

I want the resulting map to show color coded demographics, store points and the store sales with a graph like icon such as a pie chart

Thanks

Re: Map multiple layers on one map

You should be able to do this, except each data layer should use a different datamap type - eg. shaded area, pie charts, rectangular charts.

The exception would be the pushpins - you can have many pushpin datasets.

Another problem is that if they are located using the same identifiers (eg. zipcodes) then they will appear in the same place (the zipcode's center).
Therefore in reality you are probably limited to shaded area and one other dataset type,
with perhaps point (eg. street address) located pushpin datasets in addition.
