Objet: MI selecting polygons within polygons
thanks for the help re using the ctrl key - however i should have explained
my problem further...
i want to run a script that works its way through a single dataset checking
each polygon for whether or not it overlays another polygon from the same
dataset...
hope this is more specific and that someone can help!
cheers, jane
