This a broad topic. If you are new to programming with Map Suite and have no or little GIS experience, I would first read about some high level GIS concepts such as Data representation or layer and then read about shapefiles which is one very common standard of data representation. So I would read this article first: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GIS#Data_representation and then read about shapefile en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shapefile. After reading that, I think you should have the necessary background to understand how shapefiles and layers in general are used in MapSuite.
