[MS4W-Users] Problem using a feature attribute from an OGR file

[Gillis, Allan]

Hi all,

               I'm using the latest version of MS4W (download a couple days ago).  I am using an S57 file, which is supported by OGR, and I'm having a problem.  Basically, I want mapserver to draw the depth contours (DEPCNT layer of the file) with the depth written on them.  While I have been able to draw any text I want along the contour line, and I'm happy with how it looks, I cannot get the depth attribute (VALDCO) to render.

               I've also posted this question here:  http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/232198/using-the-value-of-a-field-in-an-s57-file-with-mapserver-7

               Here's what my layer definition looks like:

               I admit to flailing around a bit trying various things.... But I can't seem to figure this out.  Any suggestions?


               I have used ogrinfo to ensure the attribute exists and the value is there and sensible for the features.  Here's a sample of the ogrinfo output...
