<font face="Georgia"> Greetings,<br>
I want to create distribution maps by county occurrence for plant
species found in West Virginia.<br>
<br>
What I hope is possible is to load all the county names where a
specific species occurs and then have a county map of West
Virginia generated with the counties where the species occurs
shaded to a particular grey shade and transparency.<br>
<br>
And, while I am wishful thinking it would then be nice to have the
output saved to a new layer and then made to a tiff file. All
automated a much as possible.<br>
<br>
If I do this manually I have to load the county outline and read a
list of county occurrence and then select each one , save to a new
layer, choose the shading color and transparency and then take a
screen shot of the map area.<br>
<br>
NOTE: I am newbie so if someone comes up with a way to do this I
may or may not understand what they are talking about.<br>
<br>
I have attached a screen shot which I hope makes it through.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
WV-Mike<br>
