Hi James

> does anyone know of one that works?

You can try out MapCAD, which does the job ... 

Description and Downlaod links on:
http://www.tydac.ch/en/workgroup.htm

Remark the following:

- the english on-line help is unfourtunately not updated yet ... we'll work on it asap 
(look out for the "brush area" tool, 7th row of the toolbox)
- it creates the pattern fills with vector "cells" you can create your own (cell 
library integrated)
- what it creates is a "CAD-like" layer with the patterns, the advantage is that they 
are scaleable (i.e. if the cell size is 1 meter it stays 1 meter, not like the dumb 
mapinfo symbols ...) and bsically transferrable to any system, such as ArcView ...
- If you are using MapCAD with MapInfo 5.5 you need to install a patch that you will 
find on the CD or that you can download at: http://testdrive.mapinfo.com/patch55026

best regards
flavio
