Interestingly enough, when I buffer the region using -2 feet, the resulting buffer region looks barely different from the original, but the "centroid" actually appears near the center of the buffer. But even if it fell on the edge of the buffer, because the buffer is smaller than the original region, the buffer's centroid is still guaranteed to be inside the region. Nice solution! Simple, quick, and it works. - Bill Thoen --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 17109
