[mapguide-users] Re: mgCoordinateSystemFactory for vb.net?

Wow, it was something very simple..vb cannot wrap quotes very well.  The
coordinate system needs double quotes around all the parameters, but when
you true to nest single quotes they are considered comments...

So you have to dice up the WKT with & chr(34) & everywhere you want a double
quote in the coordinate system definition.  
i.e.  Dim wktCOORD As String = "PROJCS[ & chr(34) & "UTM83-4" & chr(34) & 
",GEOGCS[" & chr(34) & "LL83" and so on....
This fixed the issue. yikes.

No wonder the online help does not show this example (just PHP and C#).
