Sion Roberts GIS officer Cyngor Cefngwlad Cymru Countryside Council for Wales >>> "Matt Trigg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 02/27/02 08:37AM >>> Hi All Does anyone have our there any experience of using Access(97) as an automation controller for MapInfo? I would like to re-parent a map window to appear inside a control on an access form, but I cannot find a suitable form control to use as a place holder. The control must have an hWnd property I can use when re-parenting MapInfo document windows. I have successfully created pop-up windows using the form's hWnd property, but I want to embed the map window within the form. thanks in advance, will sum Matt -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.
