MikeView units

My problem is with units in MikeView. I recently changed from Windows
NT to XP, so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it. When
MikeView 2002 was installed on my computer, the units were SI. I want
them in US units, so I copied the US-UNITS.US to the file us-units.txt.
Now the units in MikeView are labeled as US units, but the numbers are
wrong. For example, an elevation entered as 587.00 feet in MikeSWMM
shows up as 1925.85 feet in MikeView. This is not a coincidence either
because 587 / 1925.85 = 0.3048, which is the conversion factor to change
meters to feet. I think that for some reason, MikeView thinks the units
were input into MikeSWMM as meters. In MikeSWMM, though, the
"Input/Output Units" are set to US Customary Units. Can anyone help me?


Thanks in advance.

P.S. I had a co-worker who still uses Windows NT open the same .prf
file in MikeView 2002 with no problem.

Re: MikeView units

Talk to DHI. I believe we saw the same problem awhile back and they
issued a patch.
