I believe I answered my own question. Projection issues...the new absale1 file was missing a shift in the X coordinate.

Thanks and sorry for the troubles.

Hello list,

My maps have recently run into a problem with a specific shapefile. The problem just started happening (they had all been working in the past).

Here are the details:
1) Both of the attached shapefiles work in arc explorer.
2) The seis3dfill shapefile works with the specific layer in question, but the absale1 is the one that is acting up.

Here is the url in question. It returns an empty image when I use the absale1 shapefile and an image filled with polygons if I switch it to use the seis3dfill shapefile. No error msgs are produced.

Here is the layer definition.
# ALBERTA SALE 1

      POSITION cc

    END
  END
END

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
