Hi Matt

I am trying to overlay AGS created cache layer over a KaMAP created Cache
Layer of the same data set.
However, even after following the tips in this forum, I am unable to get
them lined up.
The AGS layer is not lining up at the correct coord position. I have
generated the AGS cache and set the layer creation with the right extent and
tile origin.

Though your e-mail is dated May 16 2008, Hopefully May I seek your help in
trying to resolve this?
If so I can provide more info on my problem.
