Georeferenced; What does this mean?

I am running V8i.  In the References dialog box there is a section titled "Georeferenced", and with this there is a box that allows 3 choices; "No", "AEC Transform" and "Reprojected".  Note that the options are grayed out unless a reference file is highlighted.  Can someone tell me what all of this is?  I have done searches in Microstation HELP and come up with nothing.

    Georeferenced — Sets the georeference mode. When a reference is attached in Reprojected mode, the current Reference Reprojection Settings are copied into the reference attachment and stored so every user who opens the master file uses the same reprojection settings and thus, gets the same results.

    When a reference is attached in Geographic – AEC Transform mode, it calculates the linear transform that gives the best approximation to the results of performing the full reprojection algorithm, if the active model and the reference have geographic coordinate systems. For further information, see the Orientation setting in the Reference Attachment Settings dialog.

    path — Shows the full specification for the reference, including the directory.

    Right-click menu — Controls the display of items in the information panel.
