<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I have been asked by the boss to
develop some new marketable GIS skills. Our company does a lot of work in
the transportation industry. One task in our transportation work is to do
public involvement. So I have suggested developing project websites with
web-based project mapping using MapServer, which I was introduced to at an
ArcView training. To assess the usability of the software, I wanted to
implement a test to show the boss. Unfortunately, my programming experience
is limited to a bit of avenue, AML, VB, and html, none of which I would say
I am fluent in. Fortunately, the description of the software notes that
programming is not required for basic use. </SPAN></FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I apologize for my novice
questions, but I am having some problems off the bat. I have downloaded the
newest version (3.6.3) and the demo, but have not found any executables in
the zips. I am assuming that this is due to a corrupted download. I also
noticed that the software is known to run on 95, 98, and NT. I am running XP
on my machine. Will this be a problem? I can move to another machine if
needed.</SPAN></FONT></P>

style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I hope that I am not biting off
too much with this task. Luckily for me, I am a quick learner. Would anyone
out there please consider taking a young, ambitious consultant under their
wing to help him impress his boss? I will be forever grateful.
