I haven't actually tried compiling this, but I think it should be OK and should point you in the right direction. Basically you need to understand how COM works before to do this. In VB you tend to use the IDispatch interface to do things and VB handles AddRef and Release calls for you. C++ can u

RE: MI-L MI: ArcView "Projects" to MapInfo

Short answer, no. Unless there is a magical APR to WOR tool out there (which I can't imagine) you have to recreate all of the settings you are describing after importing each shapefile/layer. Can be a lot of work depending on the map and its component layers and cartography. Will Mitchell Mitch
