I really don't want to find a windows box or load a virtual machine on the server just to run UI-View :) After all its maintained by a dead guy. I played with the 'area objects' tonight. I think these will be a much better solution than what we have done on previous flood seasons. The severe weather alert polygons would also be a great solution, but I have no idea how to generate the format. Thanks to all for the suggestions. 73 kim - ac7yy _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list Xastir@lists.xastir.org http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
