MI Graphics Adapter
Hi Could someone please help as to suggesting what sort of graphics card will best work with MapInfo. Would a 3D Card be advisable, or a card that equally supports 2D and 3D. I'm looking at around 32MB onboard RAM. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

RE: MI and Visual Basic
Jas, I'm not sure if its important, but are you reparenting the MapInfo windows to your VB form (e.g. MIObject.Do "set application window " Me.hwnd) - if MI is poping up a 'save edits' dialog when you issue the close all, this might have a bearing.

MI transitioning from MapBasic to Mapx
Title: RE: MI MapInfo Pro 6.0 Demo Hi, We have build a pretty extensive application in MapBasic. It serves well as a prototype. Now we want to bring our application to the next level: bring in more functionality (not necessarily GIS-related processing), enhance the user interface, interface with MS Office applications,etc. So we are considering moving to a Visual C++ environment with MapX. I have a few related questions: Can I implement in MapX ALL functionality, which is offered by MapInfo Professional (version 6.0)? Could I use MapX in a Java environment? How does MapX development compare with Integrated Mapping (control MapInfo from a C++ client program, basically by sending MapBasic statements via OLE), both from functionality perspective and a development environment perspective? Purely from a development environment perspective, the new ArcInfo version (with MapObjects) seems more attractive. Any comments?

MI MB language history
I have just finished compiling a history of the changes in the MapBasic language since the initial Windows 3.0 up to and including 6.0. I have put it in the form of a pdf document of slightly over 150K. It is certainly not a document that could become a substitute to an official publication but it offers hints about when changes were introduced in the language and what they involved. As there is no official publication about that subject, there is plenty of room for lacking precise information, for relying on various kinds of documents, for calling on personal experience. My hope is that we could through a collective effort constitute a solid basis on the subject and I am offering that document as a starting block. E-mail me if you are interested and feed me with more, better info to improve the document. Thanks in advance.

RE: MI transitioning from MapBasic to Mapx
Title: RE: MI MapInfo Pro 6.0 Demo Bart (if thats your real name!), You ask some pretty big questions, for which I'll contribute a few partial answers and opinions. I'm sure you'll get plenty of other respondents too. Can I implement in MapX ALL functionality, which is offered by MapInfo Professional (version 6.0)? The simple answer is no. For example you cannot create a thematic map of grid type in MapX (though I think that all the other types are available) and you cannot snap to underlying nodes or trace lines when generating new features (though with clever programming you might be able to do something similar), to name just a couple. For the most part though, MI's functionality is available in MapX in one form or another, though it often works a little differently. On the flip side, MapX offers some features which MI doesn't, for example features can be selected from more than one layer at once. Could I use MapX in a Java environment? I don't know too much about Java at present, but MapX can be used in any development environment that supports COM (e.g. C++ and VB). You may also be intersted in finding out a little more about MapXtreme Java edition which is a 100% Java solution for deploying 'MapJ' (functionaly very similar to MapX) solutions across the internet or intranet. How does MapX development compare with Integrated Mapping (control MapInfo from a C++ client program, basically by sending MapBasic statements via OLE), both from functionality perspective and a development environment perspective? It really doesn't compare - MapX is much better, certainly from the point of view of development. MapX is implemented as a mapping OCX control and object hierarchy complete with events, methods, properties etc. If you're a C++ developer you've probably used many COM based third-party controls before and you'll find learning and using MapX a snip and soon a pleasure. As I've said before, MapX and MI are functionaly a little different - if you want to give your users an MI type 'Info' tool or 'Browser' for example, you'll have to develop them, though this is not usually too difficult. The freedom you have to implement this kind of functionality in which ever way you want to is refreshing if you are used to being constricted by an integrated mapping/MapBasic environment. Forget all about MapBasic - it'll be of no use to you with MapX. Purely from a development environment perspective, the new ArcInfo version (with MapObjects) seems more attractive. Any comments? Don't have any experience of MapObjects, though I find it hard to imagine why it would be more attractive than MapX (you can see I'm a MapX fan). Of course Avenue vs MapBasic is a completely different argument, but that's not relevant here. Good luck, Richard Burkmar. -Original Message-From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: 07 September 2000 12:29To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: MI transitioning from MapBasic to Mapx Hi, We have build a pretty extensive application in MapBasic.

MI GIS Website Ratings: September Update
An update of the GIS Website Ratings for September 2000 is (finally) available on the RPM Information Network at http://rpmconsulting.com. This September marks the two year anniversary of these ratings, and an historical archive is also available. As a reminder, these metrics are based on server and network diagnostics, and upon the form, structure and design of served pages, and not on the habits of a panel. These two years have seen some remarkable changes in the virtual GIS landscape. The Web has made maps so ubiquitous that they are now advertised in the US on Monday Night Football. Indeed, the shift towards maps for a mass audience and away from peer-to-peer tech talk mirrors the chasm crossing for the entire Web. Many of us expected GIS and mapping applications to hit the mainstream around the year 2000 -- but few anticipated that Mapquest would be the "killer app", though many anticipated a Microsoft entry to help things along. A brief review of the September 1998 ratings shows that 3 of the major GIS vendors were among the Top 5,000 visited sites on the Web at that time. Today, none are -- with only ESRI among the Top 10,000, and only Bentley (site recently redesigned and very pretty) and MapInfo (site still relatively slow) improving visitation from the measures of two years ago. Except for the top vendor sites, all of the top sites for September 2000 prominently serve maps. Even traffic at the venerable Xerox PARC site has picked up. Also notable is the growing prominence of the National Geographic Map Machine. Among the data portals, the big news is perhaps the nascent Geography Network, with its promise of tying users (and their digital resources) together across the globe. But it is the GIS Data Depot where visits are currently most prominent -- a well-organized site robust with basic content. It certainly would be wonderful if someone at the U.S. BLM would pick up where the late Sol Katz left off -- if that is even possible. Traffic to Sol's site continues, but it has not been revised in a long time and is, sadly, starting to feel like a ghost town. In 2000, we added a suite of format tests to help webmasters improve their document, table and form structure and image syntax. This makes pages load more correctly and faster. Virtually every site rated continues to contain some type of error, and some remain particularly sloppy. Most often the culprit is image syntax, usually the failure to place WIDTH, HEIGHT and ALT tags. When WIDTH and HEIGHT are not set, pages take longer to load because it takes time for the browser to recognize page layout. The ALT tag is important so that users who don't see the images can still know what they are. This effects not only users with older and non-graphical browsers and those with images turned off, but particularly those who are visually impaired or who are accessing the web by phone with a screen reader. Two commercial sites (Claritas and MicroImages/TNT) and two non-commercial ones (Odden's Bookmarks and AI-Geostats, both redesigned) are coded perfectly. Finally, this month's visitors to the RPM Infonet at http://rpmconsulting.com will find some powerful new tools for banking research and planning in the new dataBank portion of the site. Public health practitioners will find an update on RPM's activities in Mozambique and an archive of Chuck Croner's fine Public Health GIS newsletters, including the current issue.

(the batch approach) i.e. Select * FromTablename Where_col1 15 Fetch First From Selection Do While Not EOT(Selection) Update Selection Set _col1 = _col2 Loop This doesn't work 2. so I tried to loop through all the records in the table updating _col2 based on the value in Tablename._col1 ie Fetch First from Tablename Do While Not EOT(Tablename) If (Tablename._col1=15) Then Update Tablename Set _col2=_col3 ElseIf Tablename._col115 and Tablename._col1=16 Then Update Tablename Set _col2=(_col3-((_col3/100)*1.2)) ElseIf Tablename._col116 Then Update Tablename Set _col2=(_col3-((_col3_col2/100)*17)) End If Fetch Next From Tablename Loop This doesn't work either!

Re: MI Crystal Report
Crystal reports is a separate program and not part of Mapinfo. Therefore there are no Mapbasic command to run Crystal report. The best you are likely to be able to do is 'Run Application' to run crystal reports, and then possibly supply some command line arguments.

Check out http://www.mapinfo.com/software/mapinhand/index.html Cheers, Chris Perry Systems Development CoOrdinator Parks Victoria Melbourne, Australia Ph: 61 3 9816 6800 Fax: 61 3 9816 7222 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -Original Message- From: Dyan Catamaran [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 8 September 2000 2:04 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MI Pad Solutions Hi Users I wonder what is the "Pad" or "Palm" computer solution using MI products? The "Go to the Field and Map" concept is quite interesting. We do considerable field work and eventually we will adopt a pad solution. The majority of our mapping is done in MI although we also use AV. Thanks Dyan C.

Re: MI Save File dialogue not working
I have exactly the same problem with MI 5.5..usually happen when I work with others app at the same time. matias - Original Message - From: Hans Vidkjer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: MapInfo-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 07, 2000 4:06 PM Subject: MI Save File dialogue not working Dear Mappers, I have an unusual problem. I'm running v4.5 on Win95 (that's gotta be an unusual problem right there, but that's another story). Anyway, after I've had MI open for about 5 min, my Open Table dialog will no longer display. I try from the main toolbar and via FileOpen Table - nothing. Same thing with my Save Table dialog. All I can do is exit MI and re-launch the program. After that, everything works OK until about 5 min later, when the same thing starts happening again. This seems to be happening only with MI. MS Orifice works OK, as do many other apps. Is this a problem with: OS? Hardware? MI? Thanks in advance for any help, Hans -- Hans Vidkjer GIS/RS Analyst Weather Monitoring Systems -- Terra Spase, Inc.

MI vanishing north symbols- solved
Thanks to Stan Johnston and others for helping solve this problem- though how it has been solved is still a mystery Our office version of MapInfo 5.5 has a drop box with various NORTH symbols in the symbols preferences. I made several maps using one that said NORTH with an elongated wedge above it pointing upward/north. When I saved the finished products as windows metafiles the maps were fine, except that the north symbols displayed on my home computer as hatch marks, or hash marks as most people insist on calling them. It appears a windows metafile is more a file than a picture in some ways, and wants to find fonts to display some symbols properly. So I copied the MapInfo fonts into my home windows font file- and the metafiles now display the north symbol. The only bit I don't understand is that when out of curiosity I opened the MapInfo font files I transferred home, NONE of them appeared to contain that nifty NORTH symbol with the wedge above it. Still, mustn't grumble :-) Bob Hudson Archaeology Department, University of Sydney. --- Home pages: Archaeology at Bagan, Myanmar Buddhist Art and Archaeology: http://www.archaeology.usyd.edu.au/~hudson/bobhpage -- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: MI Run application
Hi Milo look at this I hope it will help you stephane Purpose Runs a MapBasic application or adds a MapInfo workspace. Syntax Run Application file file is the name of an application file or a workspace file Description The Run Application statement runs a MapBasic application or loads a MapInfo workspace. By issuing a Run Application statement, one MapBasic application can run another application. To do so, the file parameter must represent the name of a compiled application file. The Run Application statement cannot run an uncompiled application. To halt an application launched by the Run Application statement, use the Terminate Application statement. Example The following statement runs the MapBasic application, REPORT.MBX: Run Application "C:\MAPBASIC\APP\REPORT.MBX" The following statement loads the workspace, Parcels.wor: Run Application "Parcels.wor" Milo Simonic a écrit : What is the syntax of a mapbasic command to run an application? I want to start a workspace within another workspace, but on entering RunAplication... I get an error. I do not have a Mapbasic so I cannot check the syntax.
