Just happen to be working on something similar today. The code below would create the application, attach the application to a picturebox, and run an application (in my case an mbx, but could be a workspace.
If you want to display a map or something, you would have to find the Hwnd of that map window and attach it to a picurebox. There are examples in the mapbasic sample apps.
Set mapinfo = CreateObject("MapInfo.Application")
mapinfo.do "Set Application WIndow " & MainForm.picMapWin.hwnd
mapinfo.do "Run Application ""C:\Data\FMapCode\AgtrixCode\AgtrixAutoProcess.MBX"""
R

Hi, I'm trying to write VisualBasic code that would enable the user opening workspaces in MapInfo. By running a command in my program I'd like to have the comuper start up Mapinfo and open the desired workspace.
Something like this opens a *.doc document in MS word :
Dim xlApp As Object Set xlApp = GetObject("test.doc") xlApp.application.Visible = True
however the same code doesn't work with MI. I have MI 7.0 installed od my computer.
Thanks for help,
Jure.
