   Thanks for clarifying. I understood that 'folder' was Microsoft's name for
'directory.'

   Perhaps this is part of the problem: none of my files have a simple .gdb
extention:

a00000001.gdbtable
a00000001.gdbtablx

   I'll read that web page again and see how gdal is built here. Since I have
the source I can easily rebuild it.

Thanks,
