<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">How about a shapepath at the layer level? I am combining 20 years of working with old maps in three (or four :-)) different countries (Netherlands, Germany and Flemish and Walloon Belgium), all in their own formats, projections,
directories an servers. It would help to keep my applications (and my mind) clear if I could use the appropriate shapepaths. And as to portability, it is essential to use relative paths. Just try to move a website to a new server with a differently named filesystem,
if all paths are hard coded.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
