MI-L Elementary question on updating a table

2005-08-25 Thread Walt Kelly
Hi, As an infrequent user of MapInfo 5.5, I have a problem to solve: >From time to time I download Waypoints from a GPS using Garmin's Mapsource. It outputs the lat and lon as one field like "N44.04427 W91.66825." I used "MID$" to extract the numerical parts into newly-defined latitude and lon

MI-L workspace-layout problem in Mapinfo Pro version 8

2005-08-25 Thread Cummings, Mike
This is a strange one. Version 8.0 was just installed on the machine. I don't know if it is a factor in this. We have one machine that will not open a workspace with a layout window in it. It doesn't matter whether the layout was created on that machine or a different one. It will open wo

MI-L Count number of Overlaps by Polygons into new table

2005-08-25 Thread Cameron McGregor
Hi there, I have a TAB file with 150 polygons. I would like to somehow create a separate TAB file of where the overlaps take place along with a count of how many overlaps take place. In some cases only two polygons might overlap while in other cases 10 polygons could overlap. I have used the check

MI-L How are MIF files imported into MapInfo Version 4? [Thanks]

2005-08-25 Thread pw
Hello, Thanks to everyone who provided information regarding mapinfo MIF/MID import. I am not a mapinfo user. This is why my earlier question may have seemed a bit odd. I don't have the program. The file was checked for fields greater than 254 characters. The longest was 187, so no problem ther

RE: MI-L 'Projection' 1,33 versus 1,74

I have no 'enlightenment', but I have seen the visual change. I never paid attention to see if it was adding old tables to new tables or vice versa. I don't think it has affected my layout windows, at least not enough for me to have noticed. Mike -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTE

MI-L 'Projection' 1,33 versus 1,74

2005-08-25 Thread Kent . Treichel

RE: MI-L HELP WITH INTERNAL BUFFER QUERY

Rinus, You are right. This should be considered a bug as this behaviour shouldn't be expected when doing a subselect. It could seems as if MapInfo actually performs a join in stead ?? At least that could explain why some of the records appear several times in the result. MapInfo have released
