Hello everyone,

Thank you so much for all of your help.  I received many different
suggestions, and they all look great, especially from those of you who sent
examples of your own work.  So now I have a lot of work ahead of me to
figure out the next best course of action.  I will be meeting with my IT
department soon, and together we will examine these options and which
direction to proceed from there.

It's great to have such an incredible community of GIS and mapping
professionals out there who are happy to take the time to help one another
out.  I greatly appreciate everything.

Thanks again,


Phil
