I built an application 'squeletton" that let's you open MI windows in
ACCESS. An Access table is used to define MI table description (location,
nickname, index field name) and its link to Access (table name, related
index, form to open on request, etc). With this, you can select a record in
an access form and pop up an MI window zoomed on the corresponding selected
object; or, all the way round, select an object (or a collection of objects
in MI) and pop up an access form with related records. It's possible to
record MI selections into Access, etc ...
It's quite straightforward, and I didn't plan to sell it; on the other hand
I do not have the time to produce a suitable documentation to post it on
the list' FTP site. Depending on your skills in ACCESS, I can post it to
you (it's worthless if you can't do any VBA dev), in exchange, I'd ask you
to write the adequate english doc ... Is it an interesting deal (well of
course, if someone is making a few billion $ out of it ... please drop me
one or two..) ?

Hi Everyone,
A request for help with external databases. The problem I have is that I
have an external database in Access which I would like to be able to
associate with a mappable MI table. I can update the area column in the
external database with information from my table in MI, however what I
would
really like to be able to do is to select a record in the external database
table and be able to find the selection in the Mappable table. Ie. how you
select a record in a browser and can then find the region etc it refers to
in the map window.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
cheers
Jacqueline.
