Works fine.....BUT...only BSB V3 or lower!!!
Maptechs new BSB V4 format is copyprotected and did not run on ervery
program.

True, Maptech v3.0 and older along with Softcharts (which are also based on
BSB data) run just fine. But the new problem really has nothing to do with
copyrights.

The issue is a new file format delivered from Maptech. In response, Nobeltec
will not invest the R&D $ to change their own program in order to read it.
The same is true with the new NDI charts for Canada.

That is not true. Nobeltec will be supporting BSB 4.0 along with all of the
new NDI charts. Too many people want them because they are the best,
period.

Sorry Envision: This is from from Nobeltec's tech support department. You
can view it on their own NG:


"Nobeltec has no plans, at this time, to support any chart
manufactures using BSB 4.0. As for P3, we are releasing Transas TX97
format in WF22. Our digitizing department is still developing P3
charts. You can excpect to see the NCX Vector Format (Nobeltec's
proprietary format) in the near future. We rely on customer input to
measure the importance in creating a region. The more people that
demand P3, the faster it will get done. I'll be sure to express your
concern for wanting region P3.

If you require further assistance, reply or contact technical support.

Not quite true, VNS Version 7.0 will support Maptech raster charts at
Version 3.0 and before. It doesn't support the latest Version 4.0
charts.
