MGMap.digitizePolyline	MGMap.digitizePolylineEx
MGMap.getMapLayers	MGMap.getMapLayersEx
MGMap.getUrlList (no longer documented)	MGMap.getUrlListState
MGMap.selectPolygon	MGMap.selectPolygonEx

MGMapLayer.getMapObjects	MGMapLayer.getMapObjectsEx
MGMapLayerSetup.getDataFile	For Text, Point, Polyline, and Polygon map layers from Spatial Data Provider (SDP) Data Sources, use MGMapLayerSetup.getSdpFeatureTable instead. For DWG layers, this method will be deprecated in the next release. Instead, you should use the MGDwgDataSources.getDwg method. This method is still valid for other data source types.
MGMapLayerSetup.setDataFile	For Text, Point, Polyline, and Polygon map layers from Spatial Data Provider (SDP) Data Sources use MGMapLayerSetup.setSdpFeatureTable instead. For DWG layers, this method will be deprecated in the next release. Instead, you should use the MGDwgDataSources.setDwg method. This method is still valid for other data source types.
MGMapLayerSetup.DataFile	For Text, Point, Polyline, and Polygon map layers from Spatial Data Provider (SDP) data sources, use the SdpFeatureTable property instead. For DWG layers, this property will be deprecated in the next release. Instead, you should use the MGDwgDataSources.Dwg property. This property is still valid for other data source types.
