Try the tool "labeler.mbx" which can be integrated using the tool
manager.

It allows you to copy labels as text objects to an existing layer or in
a new table which can be exported to dxf format afterwards.

Re: MI-L Map Basic: Two wasy questions!

2000-11-20 Thread Franz-Josef Behr

1. Use, for example,   
   iCols = NumCols(sTabName)
   to determine the number of columns.
2. For each record: Append every attribute value to a string, 
   afterwards write it to the file, like:
 
   sDelimiter = ";"
   sTabName = "mytabname"
   fetch First from sTabName
   While Not EOT(sTabName)
 sOutput = ""
 For i = 1 to iCols
 sColName  = ColumnInfo(sTabName,"COL" +
Str$(i),COL_INFO_NAME)
 aCol  = sTabName + "." + sColName
 sValue= aCol
 sOutput   = sOutput + sValue
 if i < iCols then
sOutput   = sOutput + sDelimiter
 end if
  next
  print #iOutputFile,sOutpt
  fetch Next From sTabname
WEnd

MI-L MapX (4.5) with Oracle8i (8.1.6) - problem

2000-11-20 Thread Alex Eshed

Greetings, List.

A preliminary probe at the list before writing up reams of technical 
details for Tech Support.

Has anyone come across the error message:
 
"ORA-24360 Type Descriptor Object not specified for Object 
Bind/Define"

when attempting to access a mapped table in Oracle with MapX? 
Unfortunately this is on of those intermittent bugs - the tiny bit of 
VB coding that launched the error (frmMaps.Map1.Layers.Add 
MyLyr1I, 1) sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. 

When it does, we see the map properly. But the error message 
could come up on the next run attempt, without a single change to 
the code or environment. And again - the NEXT attempt could show 
the map properly.

The Oracle table is accessible without problem directly from VB. 
Also, MI Pro 6 accesses this table and maps it without any 
problems.

Please - I'm hoping only for responses of the type "Yes, that 
happened to me and this is how I fixed it." But of course, if you 
want to interrogate me for more details, I'm ready.

Could it be a MapX bug?

TIA to all responders.

MI-L Mapinfow Error

2000-11-20 Thread Janean Amundson

I've been getting a MapInfow error in the layout view when changing page
layout or objects within the layout.  I don't have to close to get through
the error but do have to hit ignore multiple times (until the redraw is
complete).  Any suggestions?

MI-L new beta tool : MIG poorman utility

2000-11-20 Thread Jacques Paris

I would like to put the final touches to a new file utility and I would
appreciate all kinds of feedback  before I "close" this project.

MIG poorman utility because it offers ways to "recycle" MIG files generated
with MI grid thematic display without having to have access to Vertical
Mapper or other "rich" addons.

4 functions:
- info on any MIG grid file
- zvalue at any point of a displayed MIG file
- export to MIF/MID of a rectangle of a displayed MIG file as defined by
user
- conversion to MIF/MID of any complete MIG file

The MIF file is made of "square" regions the same size as a "pixel", using
the coordinate system of the MIG file. The MID file contains the
corresponding zvalues.

A short txt files outlines functionalities and areas of possible
improvements.

Those interested should drop me a line.

MI-L help in sorting out OS Co-ordinates

2000-11-20 Thread Adrian Walls

I have sourced some UK climate data from a voluntary organisation of 
UK meteorologists. They have masses of data and I have offered to 
help them give the stuff some sort of geographic context and 
encourage them to put at least some of it public domain.

my first hurdle is geocoding

they have given me a list of weather stations from which I intend to 
geocode the data.  there are 4 fields that interest me 1 and 2 are 
station name and ID number
3 gives the OS sheet tile ref eg SJ and the 4th is the combined 
easting and northing co-ordinates.

I need to turn this sort of number

SJ  |   095734

into

309500  |   373400

which is the proper east north Ordnance Survey co-ordinate as 
understood by mapinfo

I have split such numbers before to make 2 columns using excel but 
only when the tiles where SH and SJ so it was easy to sort those 
numbers needing a 2 or 3 in front. In this case I don't even know 
what the values are for the remaining tiles.

I am hoping that someone out there can give me a pointer or values to 
work to although I imagine it is likely some soul out there in the UK 
land may well have encountered this before and can allow me use of an 
mbx to knock the job off

thanks for any help

see you folks

Adrian

PS UK users dont forget Mapinfo User Group Wales and West meet at the 
International Pavilion in Llangollen on Thursday 23 Nov 2000 see you 
there

MI-L help: shortest route

2000-11-20 Thread SSCI/STRC

Greetings!

I would like to ask if it is possible to get the shortest route from one
point to another on a vector map - considering the roads(lines) to be taken
as the path- using the SQL select(Objlen, intersects,sum,minimun,etc.).

Please advice.

Thank you.
