Hi,<br>
<br>
1. You are posting on a wrong place - this is for MapGuide OpenSource.
It seems that you are using Mapguide 6.x.<br>
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<br>
