MI-L SUM: MapInfo Web Services

As I mentioned yesterday I've been exploring how to use XML and SOAP as applied to web services, and so I was looking for some working examples. Here's what I've received. First, a correction. The best place to dip into the ESRI (mostly free) web services is probably at http://arcweb.esri.com/ar

Hi Peter, I agree with your perceptions - and I suspect that most people's first encounters with DBMS tables produce the same concerns. But this is a significantly different data environment from "normal" MapInfo TAB file use. The fact that MapInfo insists on using "Definition Table" TAB file

If the ConnectionString param have the password in it will not prompt for the password when you open the table. Ex : "\DATALINK\ConnectionString" = "SRVR=myServer;UID=scott;PWD=tiger" I think mapinfo never store the password himself in that property, but you can manually change it (or programmat

Hi Tim, MapX can not calculate routes by itself. You need something else such as our RW Net product. The Free version can actually do what you describe as long as the map (number of records) isn't too big. Kind regards Uffe Kousgaard www.routeware.dk - Original Message - From: "Tim Smi

MI-L Route planning

Hi list, Bit of a strange one. Is there any way I can calculate a route by road using MapX? Perhaps there is a C++ library that can be used with MapX that uses route-planning map data. My application needs to dynamically calculate the route and highlight it on the map. Hmm.. Kind regards
