siberia: what version of Delphi, Indy, etc.. are you using? I'm able to open it with Delphi 5 Enterprise with Indy 9 installed, but some of the units in the uses clause seem to be from a later version of Delphi, namely Variants, StrUtils, XMLDoc, xmlintf. Variants are native to Delphi 5 and whatever is used in StrUtils can probably be easily worked around. I think the only one likely to cause much trouble is XMLDoc, so I'm working on an alternative there. With a little work, I think I can get it to compile.
Do you guys think it's possible that Google offset the datum by a certain amount to keep people from ripping their map data for free?
