Hmm, but for others its huge. Want to work in a particular area. It probably doesn't have a name, so locate in map of nz by marque box, and then probably another iteration to get area right as recognisable features come in by zooming in. Now, lets say want to locate land owner so can contact them. Chances are I am zooming in and out all the time to get workable information where landowner is on small blocks. Ditto when finding things like schools or petrol stations. ---------------------------------------------------------- Phil Scadden, Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences 764 Cumberland St, Private Bag 1930, Dunedin, New Zealand Ph +64 3 4799663, fax +64 3 477 5232 _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list [email protected] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi
