<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Question:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What are options in making these two files work
together in the same view? (i.e. convert the shape file, or add a world file,
projection file?) </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you could elaborate a little on the solutions
that would be great (i.e. conversion suggestion, or world file conversion
example).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you very much.</FONT></DIV>
