Hi Ray, Thanks! I went through a lot of pain and torment as well (and still am actually- waiting for a postgis driver I can figure out how to do anything with). But- I got a lot of help from the mapguide development team at Autodesk, and eventually got through it. It's cool to be able to help people in return.
