Does the imported data get integrated into the other data types by attribution? For e.g the residential and commercial propeties will go into the General Building Stock? Since HAZUS aggregates the data at the Block Level for flooding, what will the damage losses for the newly added data be estimated?
Thanks for your help.

Is there a way to get multiple users to be able to access the region data?
Thanks for your help.

On install, I have consistently received “Error 1920.ServiceMSDTC (MSDTC) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services.”
I have uninstalled, reinstalled. Verified that I had administrator privileges; Reinstalled Windows XP SP3, added IIS (as I read something in SQL Server Express 2005, that it needed that to run successfully), completely uninstalled and reinstalled ArcView 9.3SP1 and Phython 2.5. But, it still freezes about 3/4 of the way in to the install with that error message. When you cancel the install at the frozen point, it gives “Error: -1603: Fatal error during installation. Consult Windows Installer Help (Msi.chm) or MSDN for more information.” Oh, and I also uninstalled the MSXML version with the windows (un)installer utility that is noted on the FEMA HAZUS web site and put the older MSXML version recommended by that document as a fix for SQL Server Express SP2 v.s. Windows XP SP3 problem, where a newer version (than is needed by the SQL component) of MSXML is put on the machine by the Windows Service Pack.
Anyone have this error message too? Did anyone that had it resolve it, or give up and revert to MR-3, which did work fine and installed without problems.
I also checked the SQL Server Services in Administrative Tools, Services, to attempt to start them and receive the error “Could not start the SQL Server (HAZUSPLUSSRVR) service on Local Computer. Error 3: The system cannot find the path specified”. These SQL files and services are there after the failed HAZUS install. Three out of the four SQL Server services give this error message when you try to start it. The only one that does start is the VSS Writer component. I thought maybe I could get them on then HAZUS would link with them on the next install attempt. I also noticed that the path(s) to the executable)s) for the three services that will not start are nonexistent folders in the Program Files directory. Can anyone help or have this issue?
