RE: MI-L Mapinfo Geocoding

2005-03-03 Thread David Reid
Are your geocoded objects being offset at all? That is to say, do they geocode right on the segment? I have seen this happen, not too often, but occaisionally. The problem I've identified is when the "FromLeft" "ToLeft" FromRight" "ToRight" ranges are not consistant with odd and even numbers. E

Hi Ian I would go back to "Object Split", because the hacking MI dialogs is a little bit tricky and future versions could cause your program to stop working. When you say that "KeyID" is being stored in the resulting browser, that's because you're making an assignment with specific value. I thi
