Hi There,

I might use this occasion to ask how many of you guys are acually seriouly 
using Oracle Spatial.
For me, I am more an database developer for Ora spatial, MapInfo is just a 
hobby.

To answer Doug,
yes the mapinfo_mapcatalog and user_sdo_geom_metadata are a bit redunant.
If the data is already sitting inOracle, the mapinfo_mapcatalog can be 
filled using
the 'make mapable' button from lb DBMS-Panel.
However, knowbody could tell me how construct the projection string in the 
mapinfo_mapcatalog.
It is a bit different to the set coords string.
I need to do a transform as my data is in long/lat but in 10^-7 Degree. So 
I have to account
for that. Transform doesnt work here.

Regards
Christof
