<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks all for your input on filepro and
maps. We actually have got a mapping program, and I'm being provided the
data that should feed the mapping program for plotting. The map portion
seems wrapped up, and luckily another person is in charge of that -- I just need
to provide the data for plotting and data for the corresponding index. I'm
expecting the data files sometime this week.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is a project for my magazine client - we will
be including the printed atlas in our April issue to all readers for free.
We plan on making money on the compliment CD that will have detailed address
locations (not provided in the free atlas), searchable and exportable/printable
for labels, etc. These are quarry locations, divided by the types of
aggregate they mine and sell.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I will be importing the data into filepro, of
course.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'll be looking for someone that wants to produce
the CD in a GUI format for us. I'd like to use filepro, but haven't
checked into any licensing costs, etc. yet. The CD will only be data, no
graphical maps involved.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If anyone out there is interested in helping with
developing the GUI interface and/or produce the CDs as part of their business,
kindly reply to me at <A
href="mailto:linda@hapner.com">linda@hapner.com</A>. The project done
previously by a competitor sold around 700 cd's, so we are probably anticipating
selling 1,000 cds. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'll probably be asked to provide the same
interface on our website -- paid access of course. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This has big potential if done right.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thank you </FONT></DIV>
