[Proj] Environment variable et proj.4 vb wrapper

[Gheysen Thibaut]

Finally, I use the solution of changing the PROJ_LIB environment variable
when my VB program start. I can now call the projection function
(pjTransform) but the result are bad. I have a gap of about 100 meters
between the real position and the projected coordinates.
My aim is to project WGS 84 coordinates from garmin GPS to various european
state coordinates. This is my first attempt to use proj4 and I don't know
what I do wrong.
Here is the definition I use :
WGS 84 (epsg : 4326) : +proj=longlat +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +no_defs
no_defs <>
Lambert 72 Belge (epsg : 31370) : +proj=lcc +lat_1=51.16666723333333 +lat_2=
49.8333339 +lat_0=90 +lon_0=4.367486666666666 +x_0=150000.013 +y_0=
5400088.438 +ellps=intl +units=m +no_defs  no_defs <>

Someone can help me ?
