I can give you any lines, points or text in either MapInfo, DXF or ASCII for Egypt. This coverage is derived from the 1:1,000,000 scale Operational Navigational Chart series. It would be a good beta test of this software I'm putting together at any rate if you can use this. I'd be happy to help; your input into GIS-L and here over the last few years has certainly helped and entertained me (and others, no doubt). I'd be honored. If you can use DCW data, let me know. I maintain the COGS (Computer Oriented Geological Society) ftp site at csn.org, and so I can post this there for you. - Bill Thoen [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask]
