Thanks all - I've got it going.  Needed a column alias (I hate alias variables), but other suggestions (such as renaming my TemplateName array to something different to the name of the column (TemplateName)) also probably would have worked. Duh.   Thanks folks,   Michelle.

Actually Evan, it will work. When you choose a different projection in Save As, the actual coordinate values are changed to their proper values in the new coordinate system. For example, a point at -122.668726 38.400478 in NAD83 is at -122.667629 38.400565 in NAD 27. Maybe if you explained your p

Title: RE: MI-L I need to translate NAD 83 coordinates into NAD 27 and/or visa-versa     That wont work.  That only changes the projection, not the actual coordinates.  The lat/long of a property in NAD 27 is different than the lat/long of the same property in NAD 83.  So, if you merely ch
