HPGN Datum? (fwd)

[Dean C. Mikkelsen]

Hi Bill,

Have you applied the PROJECTION to the LAYER level on the .map file?

What we are experiencing is the old NAD27/NAD83 problem. If PROJ.4 is
installed correctly, with the NADCON files, there should be no problem.

What does your .map file look like?

Cheers,
Dean

Here are the two projections that are giving me fits (from the shapefile
.prj files).  When I place them on the same map, they simply don't line
up.
