color=#0000ff size=2>If you have an OLE DB Data Source you should be using an
ODBC connection then. When specifying the connection properties and the geometry
columns you should be selecting your Lambert projection at that time. You
associate the coordinate system with the data, not the layer. If you have
MapGuide Studio this is easy to do. I'm not sure if WebStudio replicates this
functionality. Otherwise you would have set the projection information in the
XML for the FeatureSource manually.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
