Hello, I'am trying to backdrop the WESTERN_EUROPE map in a new created domain, following the rules described in the EFT Release notes. 1. Create a new domain. < CREATE DOMAIN EASYNET OWNER ID=SYSTEM,DIRECTORY=SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR]> 2. Copy from MCC_MAPS:MCC_WORLD.DAT to SYS$SYSROOT:[SYMGR] with a rename to MCC_EASYNET.DAT 3. Open DOMAIN EASYNET Now you should see a backdrop of the geographic map. I don't I see a .dat file in sys$sysroot:[sysmgr] named MCC_CBFD000400AA000001C993715B1EC320.MCC_MAP_EASYNET;1 Any ideas. Rob

Rob, Copy the file to: MCC$_EASYNET.dat or to mcc_maps:mcc_00000000000000000000000000000000.mcc_map |<------32 zeros!-------------->| When we open a domain we look for a file called: mcc_maps:mcc_<32hexchardomainuid>.mcc_map_<last_simple_name_of_domain.> If we do not find the above file we look for: mcc_maps:mcc_00000000000000000000000000000000.mcc_map ^ If we do not find that | we look for mcc$_last_simple_name_of_domain.dat The reason we look for the mcc$_abc.dat name is so that we can read your old files. The reason we look for the 32zero file is so that people have a mechanism to bring in backdrops without *TOO* much trouble. Like I said we read from the above files but we only write (when you save your map) to one, mcc_<32hexchardomainuid>.mcc_map_<last...>. We apologize for the screw up with the release notes.
