SetInputData2 [ClassedPostLayer]
SetInputData2 sets the classed post map input data file and columns and can be used to specify the DataFileOptions parameter.
The SetInputData2 command should be used instead of SetInputData when the worksheet being loaded is an Excel file where the sheet name needs to be specified. It can also be used to specify any data import options when loading a data file.
