Hi,

After much trial and error I have managed to get the IMGSHPAE command to
work with NQUERY

Previously I was trying to use a MapInfo TAB file - which never seemed
to find any objects (although QUERY mode worked OK).  When I translated
the data layer (a layer of points) into a Shape file everything seemed
to work OK.

Is this a known limitation of MapServer - i.e. not being able to do
spatial searches against a MapInfo layer - or is it a bug .

Many Thanks

James
