That can be used when you need to merge it's<BR>information with maps from other projections. As to .sbn, .sbx, I<BR>can't tell you, but you should be able to google it or look up<BR>shapefile specs.<BR><BR>Thanks,<BR>Matt<BR><BR>On Sun, Jul 20, 2008 at 12:57 PM, Νικος Παπαδάκης <<A href="mailto:nipapada@gmail.com"
