<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have a modified ka-map application with some customized search tools. One of these tools allows the user to pick a town from a dropdown and zoom to it. This uses a queryByAttributes process and it was working well.</FONT></P>
<BR>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">The data for the project is projected in UTM in its native format. The customer asked if we could display the data in lat/long (EPSG:4326). If I change the projection and extent in the .Map files, the map displays properly, but the search tools no longer function, I get a "no matching results" error.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">This seems pretty strange, as I am only querying by attributes, not spatially. So I wouldn't think projection would be an issue. But apparently it is. Does anyone have some insight as to how I can correct this (other than reprojecting the data)?</FONT></P>
