----------------------------Original message---------------------------- Dear Alexandra, Re your enquiry about European maps. What do you mean by a good scale? Bartholomew have recently completed a 1:1million Europe database that is in Arc/Info, properly structured and complete and consistent. It does not suffer from being incomplete, out of date, etc as DCW. On the other hand it will cost you rather more. It is available as either raster mapping (Mercator or Conic) or at more cost as a vector GIS database in the projection of your choice (lat/long by default). If you are interested let me know and I can send more details. Tim Rideout Bartholomew Edinburgh Scotland, Europe email:[log in to unmask]
