Yeah, I tried that also. The tileindex file was created by gdaltindex 
and a hexdump on the .dbf does show it is lowercase. This is running on 
mapserver 7.0.4.

I have tried everything I can think of at least twice but can't get it 
to label or throw any error message.

I'm wondering if something in mapserver 7.0 changed in regards to 
matching shapefile DBF columns. At any rate I would expect some kind of 
error if there is a problem.

I can provide the shapefile if someone is interested in checking it out. 
This one has me totally stumped.
