- In Notepad, open your BizTalk map (.btm) file.
Add the OptimizeValueMapping attribute to the <mapsource> element. For example, your <mapsource> element should be similar to the following:
<mapsource Name="BizTalk Map" BizTalkServerMapperTool_Version="2.0" OptimizeValueMapping="yes" Version="2" XRange="100" YRange="420">
Note The OptimizeValueMapping attribute value is case insensitive.
