Hi there!
                 I am trying to use the "result set" from a query (only
a single row with multiple elements), with MapServer in order to
generate maps. For example the map will color different areas with
different colors, based on the number returned for that specific area in
the result set.=20
                  Also, the results are coming from a database and
therefore the numbers in the result set are not present in the "shape
files". Can anybody help me in this regard? Please let me know if the
question is not very clear.
With thanks
Abhishek
