Hi Dan,
I have2 formats, TDRBM and WCS, which have both lat-lon and XY (stateplane) coordinates. Our QA people want the ability to display either set of coordinates in Viewer and ArcMap. I tried putting a getenv() call into the reader but that causes a crash & burn :-) What I need is some way, outside of the Viewer or ArcMap, to tell the view which set of coordinates to display. Any ideas? Bob ----------- L.

I always start the Universal Viewer from the command line, after converting the vector data to FFS with GENTRANS - quite un-kludgy. GENTRANS lets you set the coordinate system; see the first example at http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/Gentrans <http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/Gentrans> Cheers, Dan Iseminger Safe Software On 3/21/07, Rice, Bob <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Good Morning, Here's an interesting problem (opportunity). I have a custom format, written in C++, which contains point data in both Lat-Long (LL) and state plane (XY). My users would like to be able to select which coordinate system to display. The only way I could think of to select was open a DOS window, set an environmental variable, and start fmeviewer from the DOS window. This seems very kludgy. Any ideas?
