Hi John,

The cntry02 data was downloaded from ESRI's data site a while ago, and
is in WGS-84 coordinates. The dcwpo-browse shape file was created using
the OpenMap VPF2Shape program from the VMAP level 0 reference data, and
that data isn't in WGS-84 coordinates (I can't remember offhand what it
is, but it doesn't match up with other WGS-84 coordinate data.

Hope this helps,

Don
