Answer:
and if you take a look in your SAPROPS.CFG file, there is a rename at the top of the file that looks something like: #ifdef "Business Enterprise" RENAME SYMBOL "Swim Lane" TO "Org. Unit" #endif Do you have Business Enterprise defined in your Encyclopedia configuration?

Does anyone know what to put in the USRPROPS.TXT that would give the ability for a custom diagram type to allow definitions to be represented as swim lanes?

I tried:

SYMBOL "Stratum" in "ASA Roles"
{
 DEPICT LIKE "Swim Lane" IN "Process Map"
 DEFINED BY "Stratum"
}

but it doesn't work.  Anyone have any ideas?

Actually, now I have tried this:

SYMBOL "Stratum" in "ASA Roles"
{
 DEPICT LIKE "Lane" IN "Business Process"
 DEFINED BY "Stratum"
}

and I get:

Symbol "Stratum" [624] (defined by "Stratum")
has a DEPICT LIKE clause using symbol type Lane.
No symbol may be depicted like Lane symbols - ignored.

I really need to be able to do this...

The reason you get the error in the second post is becuase you want to DEPICT LIKE "Swim Lane" ... Try correcting and see if that works.

Thanks Cam.  You were right, I had to depict like org. unit

SYMBOL "Stratum" in "ASA Roles"
{
 DEPICT LIKE "Org. Unit" IN "Process Map"
 DEFINED BY "Stratum"
}

and then it said I needed a Swim Lanes property for the diagram but it is working now.  THANKS HEAPS

DIAGRAM "ASA Roles"
{
 PROPERTY "Swim Lanes" { EDIT Text ListOnly LIST "Swim Lanes" DEFAULT "horizontal" HELP "Enable swim lanes by setting the orientation" }
}
