With such a large Bounds, chances are that your original coordinates have been rounded off beyond recognition. The size of your coverage is 50 times the circumference of the globe, and the moon orbit would probably fit within it. And 'Save Copy As...' will NEVER work with nonearth data to earth data.

greeting members. I have a problem during querying tables. I get the message "can not open table". A memory problem i wondered. Its a table with 250.000 records ( and i have recently done queryies on tables with a millon records with no problem). On a query that i know returns few records, lets say about 20.000 it goes ok, but a query that should return about 200.000 records goes "ad undas". I've done boot on the hardware and some memoryadjustments, but still the same problem. (enough space on the disk too. Im pretty new to MI and are there some things in the sw that i should check out according to this problem. (What about temporary files or somethiing like that).

MI MapXtreme - huge datasets
Title: MapXtreme - huge datasets Hi All, I am using MapXtreme (Java edition) to display some southern Sydney (Australian) street data. We are hoping to use street data from the whole of Australia in the application, but I have a concern about how MapXtreme will handle it due to the huge amount of data, even though we will only want to load data in small areas. Does anyone have any experience with using MapXtreme with very large datasets? How does MapXtreme work in relation to displaying data. Does it cache all data from open tables (layers) in memory and work from this cached data, or does it search through the datafiles and only load the data required to display the current area? My main concern will be speed of display. If we have a very large street level dataset covering the whole of Australia and display a suburb in Sydney at a scale of about 1:2500, will it be quick? What hardware specs would I need to get quick displays in the mentioned example? Thanks!!! :) Regards Dennis Entriken
Re: MI Creating contour maps
Tony, You can use any of the following products from Mercator Geosystems: The first is GridContour. This program creates contour lines and contour polygons from any standard mapinfo grid file (*.mig). The second is Triangulator. This program accepts any map containing pointdata and can create: -Delaunay trinagles -Voronoy polygons -Slope and aspect maps -and Contour maps (both polylines and Polygons) Free and fully functional evaluation versions of both programs can be downloade from www.mercatorgeo.nl Go ahead and give it a try, Roeland - Original Message - From: Tony Shepherd [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: MapInfo Email Group (E-mail) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 04, 2000 10:35 PM Subject: MI Creating contour maps Is there anybody out there using MapInfo to create contour maps from sets of points with elevation data attached.

MI Printing from ProViewer
Hope someone has some ideas. I need to disable the printing options from MapInfo Pro Viewer Version 6. It seems that the toolbars are not customizable. I have located the .mnu file and all that seems to store Is a list of the last workspaces or tables that you have opened. The text the appears on the bottom of the file menu. I have also looked through a variety of other files. One of which being the .str File. This is where you can specify what text appears in what menu and what Hover text appears as you hover over the buttons or menus. So that is half way, all I need to do is to get rid of the printer button and disable the action that it performs. Any pointers?

My company has had a multiple user license for some time. We are finally using more than one license and I have ran into some problems. I am currently the primary user and have created hundreds of tables. The other users are not able to edit the tables I have created. Is there a ownership issue with respect to tables? If yes, how can I disable the ownership so any user can edit any table? If there is no ownership problem, can anyone tell me why the other users get a "Cannot perform edit.

MI: SUM: How to print the contents of the message window
The question: One of our MapBasic applications writes different messages to the Message window. In order to print the contents of the Message window, I tried, to no avail: PrintWin Window 1003 How can I either print the contents of the Message window to a printer or to a file? Must be obvious. Thanks in advance. Thanks for the suggestions: Ahmet Dabanli and Peter Doyle suggested to put the window into a layout and print; Paul Jones suggested to ouput the messages to a text file via OPEN FILE, PRINT#, and CLOSE FILE statements. Jacques Paris offered a discussion of the topic. I should have mentioned in the original posting that the contents of the Message window is sometimes a few hundred lines long (cumbersome in a layout), and that I preferred a fast, non programmatic solution. I will have to modifiy the code, for it seems to be the only way to get the whole contents. Thanks again to all respondents. _ Claude Lavoie, a.g.

RE: MI ESRI Shapefile and MapX Compatibility Question
Dave, The reason why MapX cannot get the projection is because that shapefiles do not keep information about projection. Thus there is no way for MapX to read it.

MI Gridmaker errors
Title: MI Gridmaker errors I am getting some wacky errors when using Gridmaker. I make a grid that splits the USGS quads into 16ths and choose to make the grid into regions (rather than just a bunch of lines). Then I combine various areas of the grid so that I have varying sizes of boxes. The error that I always get is if I have 4 boxes that form a square and I then I combine three of them and leave the other box alone. example: C X C C (X = box I leave alone and C = boxes I combine) Now, when I overlay this grid on top of my other layer and try to use boundary select, it always selects the grid layer instead of the layer below it. Boundary select works fine in all the rest of the regions in my grid except for the areas set up per my example. I am using MapInfo 4.1.2, so have they made a better gridmaker with 5, 5.5, or 6? Any fixes? Any suggestions how I can fix this error? -Evan
MI MapX bounds
In MapInfo we can create a map using bounds, so the precision map is higher. In MapBasic, we have the statment Set CoordSys Table x so all drawing toolsobtein the samepresicion that the table x has due the bounds.. Is this possible using MapX ?. Is it possible to create a map using bounds and set the tools precision ? Thanks in advance.
MI Converting Non-Earth N E to a proper Projection N E
Hi My question was: Hello Mappers: I have some vector (say polylines) data that was savedusing: Non-Earth m, Bounds -10, -10, 10,100. This was done since the PRJ file did not contain theappropriate projection parameters. N is displayed. The appropriate RSOprojection parameters have been added to the PRJ file and now I wish toconvert all of the existing data (in Non-Earth) to RSO. N from each nodeand stores them into an ASCII file. I then import these coordinates intoMI and generate lines from the points. I also could write some MB code tocreate the new tables. Is there a simpler way of doing this? Perhapswithout getting into MB programming at all. I am working in MapInfo 5.0and MapBasic 4.1.2. Thanks The solution is: Save the file out as a MIF, and then edit the MIF header. Add the correctprojection parameters to the header. Then read the MIF back into MI.
