Once you have created this new projection, you can use it in a Map window to replace the coordinate system you are using.

  1. Open the map for which you want to change projections.
  2. In the Layers or Explorer window, right-click the map name and click Map Options to open the Map Options dialog box.
  3. Click Projection to open the Choose Projection dialog box.
    Note: To change the projection of a tab file and all of the map objects in it, use the Save Copy As command and select the new projection (on the HOME tab, in the File group, click Save Copy As).

  5. From the Category Members list, choose a projection or unit.
  6. Click OK to close the dialog boxes.
