if it works on my box. I’m not sure what you get when you download Frank
Tools because I always just get the source code but see if you can find a file
named “prime_meridian.csv”. That would be the data dir. Are you
building gdal from source or does Frank Tools come with a gdal1x.dll already
there? If you are not building from source then maybe you don’t need the
proj4 nad files. I think you do though because usually when the transformation
init fails it’s because it can’t find those files or the files are
from a different version. Sorry if I’m not being much help. </span><span

<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> isn't clear enough ? I must confess

<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> modified to point to the remaining

<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> don't<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> care about.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> Ok, here's a sample snippet :<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> (For the purists, a more correct

<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><span lang=EN-GB>> But a simpler approach would be
