I'm afraid you've reached the limit of my windows mapserver knowledge.
<br>
Maybe someone else on the list can help, but otherwise I suggest that <br>
you switch to the MS4W package. Is there some reason that it isn't <br>
practical to do so?<br>
<br>
You might get more help on the mapserver-users list since this isn't <br>
just a problem with maplab. That list has far more subscribers.<br>
