Article ID: 137129
Article Last Modified on 10/6/2003
APPLIES TO

This article was previously published under Q137129
SYMPTOMS
Microsoft Automap Road Atlas miscalculates the fuel consumption for a
journey.
For example, if the fuel cost for all road types is set to $1.00 per
gallon and miles per gallon (MPG) is set to 1, the cost calculation
should yield $1.00 per mile. In this case, Road Atlas consistently over-
estimates the cost by approximately 0.5 percent.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Automap versions 3.0 and
3.02. This problem was corrected in Automap version 3.03.
