Hi Ed,
I actually just tested the layer in a mapfile on it's own and can't
display, so think there might be something wrong with the data, although it
shows up fine in ESRI's arcExplorer. Here is some output of doing a shpdump
on the shp file:
Shapefile Type: Point # of Shapes: 73
File Bounds: ( -139.450, 42.030,0,0)
to ( 79.350, 82.130,0,0)
Shape:0 (Point) nVertices=1, nParts=0
Bounds:( -116.020, 50.570, 0, 0)
to ( -116.020, 50.570, 0, 0)
( -116.020, 50.570, 0, 0)
Shape:1 (Point) nVertices=1, nParts=0
Bounds:( -81.240, 46.010, 0, 0)
to ( -81.240, 46.010, 0, 0)
( -81.240, 46.010, 0, 0)

Is your map file correct?
