(I'm shifting this discussion to the DotNet mailing list.)<br><br> Carsten, actually you don't necessarily need to get into C and unmanaged code. Indeed the DotSpatial library and the others I mentioned on Codeplex are NOT com/activeX. I do though also run the MapWindow project that has one realization with a very lovely C++ ActiveX control that totally/easily replaces MapObjects, so you can go that route if you want to. But if you are comfortable with managed dotnet code then you should get involved in our DotNet C# projects. - Dan<br>

Hi Dan<br>
<br>
Thanks for the suggestions. I put meself on dotnet List and had a look at codeplex ;o) .. (couldn't help smiling there)<br>
I need a break from fumbling round .. I think that I have a ~600mb downloaded microsoft library that I can, and have spend a lot of time in. It look as if my problems have a chance in the part of visual studio that I've avoided so far (com-objects) >sigh<<br>
I can read c and have got the best info by reading the code in libTiff. And I know the syntax for reaching 'unmanaged code' as it's called, but havn't yet tried it. Maybe the largest obstacle is to convince myself that I really need it .. I sortof expect someone to hit me with a magic one-liner that solves everything. It's hard to believe that it's necessary to write your own codec to reach data in the public domain (It's called something like 1 or 30 arcsec aster elevation model data)<br>

Carsten, with your background in VB and interest in C#, you should also consider joining the <a href="mailto:dotnet@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">dotnet@lists.osgeo.org</a> mailing list and check out our projects including DotSpatial, SharpMap and others (search "gis" on <a href="http://codeplex.com/" target="_blank">codeplex.com</a> and go to town). - Dan<br>
