coordinate transformation w/ map 5

[massimiliano ferrari]

let's see if we can fix this:

I am using SurvCadd CES with Map 5. When I want to perform the
coordinate
conversion of a crd file, the Map 5 screen for input and output
coordinate
systems doesn't come up therefore I get stucked with the few choices
available in Survcadd.

I used to perform this task perfectly (and I still have
to...unfortunately!!!) with my old Map3/survcadd CES installation.

I would like to be able to take advantage of the expensive modern
software
technology we recently purchased through Carlson Software and therefore
any
help would be really appreciated.

Terry

thanks for the hint but this is not what I was looking for ( I have been
usin map for a while).

My problem is that when i run the coordinate transformation of a .crd
file
in survcadd running map3 I can transform the .crd file coordinates
choosing
from the Map 5 set of available coordinate system (therefore if I want
to go
from a lat long to Vietnam south..... I can).
Using survcadd with map 3; on the coordinate transformation screen from
coordinate file utilities I can choose the "Other" option and...
voila'...
the Autocad Map dialog window for input and output coordinate system
comes
up giving me the option to choose from the coordinate systems for the
entire
world including the Republic of Tongo.

Now.... if I run Survcadd CES with Map 5 I cannot do the same thing and
i
get stucked with the few choices available with Survcadd.
My point is that I would like to do the same thing I used to do with Map
3
with my new Map5.

Thanking you in advance and hoping that I have been clear enough this
time.

The reason I say 'if' is because I don't know why that option was
removed.
If it was removed by mistake, I'm sure it will be fixed soon.
