Subject: MI Splitting polygons

Not directly, but it's simple enough to:
1. Draw your line.
2. Select it then run Objects -> Convert to Regions.
MapInfo will add an extra segment to close the region off.
3. Use the Node Add tool to add nodes to this extra segment until it
surrounds one of the halves you want.
4. Now use this region object as the splitter object in Objects -> Split.
Notice you can save a few steps by drawing a region
object in the first place.
