Re: MI-L sinuosity

This expression can be used in MapInfo, so no tool is needed: distance(ObjectNodeX(obj,1,1),ObjectNodeY(obj,1,1),ObjectNodeX(obj,1,Obj ectInfo(obj,20)),ObjectNodeY(obj,1,ObjectInfo(obj,20)),m)/ObjectLen(Ob j,m) It is assumed you only have polylines with 1 section. Kind regards Uffe Kousgaard

Re: MI-L api FindExecutable

MI-L Oracle SQL Query Size Limit?

List, There appears to be a limit to the size (length) of an SQL query to an Oracle database. Does anybody know exactly what the limit is? I have found that when I try to select around 80 individual columns (using either ODBC or Oracle 8i Drivers) I get a Could not create table. message. This

MI-L Plotting Raster Images

Listers: When I attempt to plot a layout, everything except the raster images plot properly. I can plot the images from a paint program, so it seems to be a MapInfo problem. Has this happened to anyone else? Any help is appreciated. Thanks Ron PS. I am using an HP 1050C with a 300 meg internal

Re: MI-L Plotting Raster Images

Ron This happens to us every now and then. Our conclusions here, (Mostly educated guesses.) are that it happens most often with large plot files. It seems to have more to do with our HP2500 plotter disk and memory limits then with Mapinfo. We don't have an exact answer, but the way we usually
