--Boundary_(ID_6R62S4yasQFU29Z2jD28ig) Greetings, List. Can anyone please enlighten me on what BSB maps are? The files have a .KAP exension. I believe they have something to do with marine mapping, but I could be wrong. Can they be transformed by any method so that MapInfo can handle them? TIA

Keith, how are you running the MBX, by double clicking the mbx file itself or through MI, and run MapBasic Program? If you are doing it the former way then there may be due to the settings in the OS for associations for mbx's. See the posts from earlier (October) on MapInfo-L, entitled something

MI-L Buffering Resolution

2001-12-12 Thread Taylor, Michael Graham
Hi I am trying to create a rather crude buffer around a feature (the least amount of points I can get away with), however MI6.5 seems to ignore any setting in the resolution under 12. The test I did was on a fairly close to right angle line and one a line with a 30ish degree bend using a resol

Marc Autolabel does label the whole street layer at once, but the problem is that the mbx that allows you to tranfers the labels (as text) to the cosmetic layer, only tranfers the labels visible on your screen. Therefore if you want to transfer ALL the labels to your cosmetic layer you must zoom
