G'day Ethan,
It sounds like a small utillity that I have written may be of use.
shade.mbx matches up a character code in your map table with a code in a legend
table, and applies the region style from the legend table.
I will send you a copy.
If anyone else is interested, I shall soon place it on the Freeware section of
my website.
