   INCIDENT DIAGNOSIS:
   ==================
  UNABLE TO READ CATIA VRML DATA ON INTERNET EXPLORER OR NETSC
  APE.
  
   JUSTIFICATION FOR DEVLOPMENT REQUEST:
   ====================================
   When writing the VRML file, position fields and
   focaldistance of VRML PerspectiveCamera are in millimiters
   but the VRML standard imposes meters.
  
   ANSWER AND POSSIBLE BY-PASS:
   ===========================
   Divide by 1000 (mm>m) position fields and FocalDistance of
   PerspectiveCamera node.
   To do so: open vrml file
   ->perspectiveCamera (open to obtain camera coordinates)
   ->position: divide the number by 1000
   ->FocalDistance: divide the number by 1000.
