MI hidden field mapinfo_id
Dear Listers, When saving a tab file as a access table the field mapinfo_id appears in the access table. This means that mapinfo uses this table for internal procedures, but is not visible in the browser. I would like to use this field to update a column. Is this possible anyway. At the moment I use the following workaround: Save the table as a access table Copy the mapinfo_id column to another new column Import the access table in mapinfo again. There should be an easier way to perform this TIA Bob Mijwaard Project manager GIS Wolters-Noordhoff Atlas Productions [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
MI Geomorph conversion program needed
WOLTERS-NOORDHOFF ATLASPRODUCTIONS Dear Lister, A couple of month ago I have downloaded an evaluation version of the program Geomorph. This program converts various GIS-formats to each other. I needed the software for conversion form MapInfo (MID/MIF) to BNA (Atlas GIS). Now I need a commercial version of the program (evaluation expired) the program is not longer available on the market. Is there anyone who knows this program and does have a copy of the program for me.

MI: CMYK colours in Mapinfo
Dear Listers I would like to use a CMYK palette in Mapinfo instead of a RGB or HSV palette. Is there any Mapbasic program or something else available?

MI: selection Into and Noselect
Dear Listers, I am trying to write a Mapbasic script to combine two (or more) polygons together. The user selects the first polygon and the polygon to be combined with is selected using the statement below. Because I need to do a combination, both selections have to be in the same result table. The Into and clause with noselect can be used I understood from the manuals, but why does it not work the way I have written this script. Can anyone give me a hint ?? select * from tab_filename where obj intersects (select obj from SelectionInfo(sel_info_selname)) and grid_code = gridcode Into SelectionInfo(sel_info_selname) Noselect TIA Bob Mijwaard Project-manager GIS Wolters-Noordhoff Atlas Productions The Netherlands E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

MI RE: Overlappign Text
Erin, There is at least one program able to replace text avoiding overlaps. It is called Maplex and ESRI UK sells it. It is a quite expensive program, something like $20.000 or even more. See below fro some information form www.esri.com: <http://www.esri.com:> Maplex currently reads data from a wide variety of file formats including ESRI shapefile format, Laser-Scan Internal Feature format, Ordnance Survey National Transfer format, Ordnance Survey User Transfer format, MAPDATA format, Maplex Features and Labels format, and Maplex Placed Labels format. Create fully symbolized cartographic products on your computer screen, and then output hard copy to standard printing devices using Maplex. Maplex produces a variety of output files including Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia FreeHand, Adobe PostScript, ArcInfo annotation subclasses, Laser-Scan Internal Feature format, MicroStation Design files, MAPDATA format, and Maplex Placed Labels format. Maplex works well with your existing systems. Many cartographers already use ESRI's ArcInfo professional GIS software. Text in an ArcInfo database can be automatically placed using the Maplex rule base and subsequently rewritten to a new annotation subclass. This export feature solves the perennial problem of capturing type in a database and moving it around. Availability Maplex Version 3.3 is scheduled to be available during the second quarter of 1999. Maplex Version 3.2 is currently available for Windows NT 4.0 or greater on a Pentium PC; 64 MB RAM is recommended. For more information or to order Maplex, visit www.esri.com/maplex <http://www.esri.com/maplex> , contact your regional office , or call 1-800-447-9778. Outside the United States, please contact ESRI (UK) (tel.: 44-1-923-210450, fax: 44-1-923-210739) or visit ESRI (UK)'s Web site at www.esriuk.com <http://www.esriuk.com> or contact your local ESRI distributor <http://gis.esri.com/intldist/contactint.cfm> .

If anyone knows of a program that you can run that will move text for you, please let me know. I don't want to turn off the overlapping text box in the map layer control because I do want all the text, I just don't want it to overwrite. I will summarize and share any responses. -- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- 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 e00 -> MI
Hi Matt MapInfo pro comes with ARC Link which converts E00 files into TAB format and the other way round. You need to use a custom install when installing MI Pro and select the ARCLink - it is not installed as part of the normal installation setup.
