Thank you Arnulf and Norbert,

With your help, I've managed to get somewhere...

Problems I noted were

1. I needed to set an environment variable PROJ_LIB since thet defaults 
for windows e.g. C:\PROJ etc
did not work for me since msys paths are weird....This allowe my epsg 
file to be found

2. I had to find another epsg file that contained your code..

3. As you suggested, I needed to set IMAGEPATH, URL to point to my machine??

I did not see the problem with the PNG lib, I used the PNG lib distro, 
and I am using ms4.01 on WinXP...

Now to move on to WFS stuff

I,ve attached my mapfile incase it might help other...

thanx again, and regards,

nicolas boretos
