Let me see if I can help, first upgrading 4.0 to 4.2 will not make you an
Experienced user. We geo-code or register photos and topo maps to the
national tiger files all the time its not a problem. You can create a
polygon coverage that defines the area covered by each photo and then create
a field on the polygon record to store the photos file name. Could you
please explain the need to export from maptitude as txt file - update in
excel then import to maptitude as .dbd? You can maintain records directly
within maptitude. Holler back and we help more.
