[MI-L] Mapbasic - Passing paramaters to Main
Does anyone know how to pass (of if its possible to) pass paramaters into /out of a mapbasic program so that it can be called from the mapbasic window (or a workspace). For example an app might be declare function product(x as float ,y float) as float function product(x as float ,y float) as float product = x * y exit function end function Thanks in advance Brendan Tagg Melbourne, Australia This email and any attachments may contain privileged and confidential information and are intended for the named addressee only.

[MI-L] Re: Opening ENC data (S57 format or *.000 file)
Hello list, Does anyone know of any method of opening ENC files in MapInfo 8.0? (e.g. Electronic Navigation Chart information) The data format has *.000 as the extension and is part of the S57 object catalog for Hydrographic Data.

RE: [MI-L] Symbol Sizes
There is a (sort of) way of doing this: View your map in a Layout window. Set the Layout frame holding your map to display a particular scale, and do all your panning and zooming on the layout. You can create a custom page size if the area to view is very large. Don't pan or zoom the underlying Map window, but if you need to edit data or annotation, clone that window and set the clone to show a "reference scale". Pan around the clone (don't zoom in or out) and edit objects in that window. Hope this helps Spencer From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Lee Morris Sent: Friday, June 09, 2006 9:00 AM To: mapinfo-l@lists.directionsmag.com Subject: [MI-L] Symbol Sizes I need help. Ive tried everywhere else, can any of you guys help me? Is there a way of sizing symbols according to the scale of the map, as when I zoom out, all I can see are symbols. Please help!!!

RE: [MI-L] Raster images in different coordinate systems
Hi Caroline, There a few things that MapInfo takes into consideration when deciding which raster gets the lead. 1. The raster layer covering the largest part of the map This is mostly the case, at least until the later versions where Ii think they shifted to 2 2. The upper raster layer The problem could be that you had to rasters in the map, but only the upper was visible. In this case the upper controls the coordinate system. I'm not quite sure exatly when this changed. With MapInfo 8.5 these problems are gone. MapInfo 8.5 supports the reprojection of raster.

Working with raster images registered in these systems, they don't quite "meet", with offsets, gaps, overlaps and even different sizes where they should match up. Does anyone know how MapInfo displays the images in the same window? i.e. how one raster would be "warped" compared to the other one in the map window? Or how MapInfo deals with the second raster to be placed in the window when it's a different coordinate system? I know the map window projection can't be changed once a raster appears, and that it takes the projection of the initial raster, but what does it do with the second one?
