	GIS USERS:

	A new version (v1.2.0) of Table2Point is now available incorporating
the NAD83HARN/HPGN source datum.  Since the output Albers projection =
already
uses this datum, no coordinate system transformation is performed.  The
purpose of this option is to allow tables of points in degree minute =
second
or decimal degree formats to be converted into Albers units (meters) and =
to
create a layer from them.

	The zip file is available at
http://bis-4cgxh11/Custom/fdep_arcgis8.htm.


	DESCRIPTION:

	Table2Point - Converts a table (DBF and ACCESS) with Longitude(X) and
Latitude(Y) values to point shapefile or event theme, transforming and
projecting to the FDEP standard Albers projection.

	Input formats: Decimal Degrees (-81.03040), Degree-Minute-Second with
spaces (-81 01 49.45), DMS without spaces (-810149.45), DMS in six =
columns.

	Input Datums:  NAD83HARN/HPGN, NAD27, NAD83, WGS72, WGS84.  Datum can
also be read from a column in the table for each input point.

	Output: an Event Theme or a Shapefile.



	Copy the 'DEPTableToPoint.dll' and the folder 'DEPTableToPoint_help'
to the same directory (C:/myav8, usually).
	The help files in the 'DEPTableToPoint_help' folder are used by the
dll to display runtime help, and the folder needs to be in the same =
directory
as the dll and be named 'DEPTableToPoint_help'.

	Use the Table2Point_Tutorial.doc to help you install the component in
ArcMap and to help you learn to use the tool.

	Sample mdb files are provided in the 'SampleTables' folder.  See the
readme in that folder for details.

	Note: the source table must not be open as an event theme or in any
other application while this tool runs.=20


	Thank you
