The World Map in the 'Analyst' is stored in WDBII (World Data Base II) format. I want to be able to create files in this format, that Analyst can then read and display. Any ideas on how to create such files ? - the Analyst Programmer's Manual provides zilch help. The files are not going to be geographic, but anatomic (2-dimensional), will this be a problem ? thanks in advance Bern

Actually, the World Map isn't stored in WDBII format. It is stored in the Analyst Map format, but the data has been extracted from WDBII. When I was at XSIS I spent many hours extracting maps from the WDBII for the Analyst Demo files. XSIS has a utility program written in smalltalk to extract Analyst Map files from the (specially massaged) WDBII files. I am sure that for the right amount, they would be happy to provide it to you. I suggest you contact: Evelyn Van Orden Smalltalk Products Manager Xerox Special Information Systems (818) 351-2351 --Joshua Susser internet: susser@apple.com AppleLink: susser.j
