Image projection question

G'day Frank.

Thank you again for your feedback.

My problem with displaying the shapefile was one of colour. When I added 
a CLASS to the unit layer, it became visible.

I checked my spatial_ref_sys table and the 28354 definition is correct.

I tried expanding the map PROJECTON definition but this had no visible 
effect.

What did have an effect however, was to change the map projection to:
    PROJECTION
       "init=epsg:28354"
    END

This fixed the polygon location relative to the raster - but broke the 
reference map. It no longer shows the map location.

As I think I mentioned earlier, this was the reason that I originally 
chose eqc as the map projection. It was the only one I could find that 
produced matching map, reference map and scale map.

I am attaching the complete map file that was used in this latest test. 
If you could identify why the reference map has stopped working, I 
think my whole problem might be solved.

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen
