Hi Alistair,
You can open a workspace file with the "run application" command,
eg run application "c:\temp\myworspace.wor"
Once your workspace is open you will probably need to issue a statement like
set map window frontwindow() center (x,y) zoom z units "m"
to zoom to the appropriate location where x and y are the coordinates on
your access database and z is some appropriate window width (to get an
appropriate scale) You may also need to issue a coordsys statement to
ensure the map coordinates are in the same projection as those stored in
your database.
Hope this helps
regards
Martin

Subject: Access - opening MI to Display aspecific land parcel
I need to open a workspace and display a land parcel whose co ords are held
in the current access form
To coin a good old aussie phrase, it's a bit like being up a creek in a barb
wire canoe without a paddle - very painful
The following opens MI from the Access form and Brings a blank MI window to
the front
Private Sub Command397_Click()
Dim objvar As Object
Set objvar = CreateObject("mapinfo.application")
objvar.Visible = True
objvar.Do "set window 1011 restore front"
>From here I am stuck
I am a relatively new user of MI ! any help will be appreciated
Thanks
Alistair
