DGN to be about the same as DWG. What version of Map 3D do you have?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks to all for the suggestions and encouragement. I'll
try to address a couple of responses in one post. <b>To Dave Wilson regarding
connecting to the WMS you posted:</b> Here is a screen recording of what I get
when I connect to the WMS. http://screencast.com/t/N2UwM2Rh As you can see I
cannot get to the point where I can access any classes. What am I doing wrong?
Once I am able to successfully load a map from a WMS I'll tackle coordinate
systems and transparency techniques. Also, if I download a trial version of MG
Enterprise, could I get by with just using the documentation along with MGOS
and not install MG Enterprise? I'd really not want to go through another
install and set up. <b>To Mark P. regarding using Map 3D</b>: I am able to
connect to and load WMS maps into Map 3D via FDO. I also can load Raster images
sucessfully. The process does not translate to Maestro however as the dialogues
are different and I am not able to connect to either sources in Maestro. Please
see my screen recording above for connecting to WMS. Here is a screen recording
showing my connection to a raster image (TIF). Again, it doesn't want to work. http://screencast.com/t/NDA4Zjdk
Again I ask, what am I doing wrong here? Also regarding Mapguide Studio to load
DWG's: As far as I know I can't get Mapguide Studio unless we buy Mapguide
Enterprise. As I have mentioned a few times, that is not an option right now.
Perhaps I'll have to resort to translating DWG's for now and if we decide we
want better DWG capabilities we could consider purchasing Mapguide Enterprise,
unless there is another means to load DWG's directly. On a side note, is there
a way to translate and load DGN's? Again thanks for the encouragement and help
to all who have replied. I'll keep hammering for a few more days and see if I
can get past this block in the road. <o:p></o:p></p>
