Tom, I appreciate your reply. I'm starting with a
lat/long coordinate in the U.S.A and wanting to
display a map of the local area at this point with
various layers of GIS data. But the data a have from
ESRI is by state and county and I don't know how load
the correct file for display.

Thank you for your thoughts,
Jacob
