Hi,

1. You are posting on a wrong place - this is for MapGuide OpenSource. 
It seems that you are using Mapguide 6.x.
2. Coordinates of points coming from OLE DB Data source are assumed to 
be in decimal degrees - there is no other option - you should have 
Lat/Lon values in your database. However your map can be in any 
projection and coordinates are transformed (reprojected) on the fly
