Re: [MI-L] Merging Layers

Hi Stephen! I'm a bit confused as to what you are trying to do here. But this is how I understand it: First you append TAB2 to TAB1, and that is no problem. But you get a number of overlapping region objects. I assume that your tabs contain a large number of regions. In order to find a total area

[MI-L] MI-L Mr Sid Image Error

I have downloaded a Landsat image from https://zulu.ssc.nasa.gov/mrsid/   It is in Mr Sid format.   Using MapInfo 8.0 I get an error message "Raster Engine Error : 4."   Ther error occurs after I have selected the projection and a Mapper Window opens, but the image is not visible.   Note that

RE: [MI-L] Speed up opening tables

Philip,   The interesting question is what actual is taking the time. Is it opening the tables, showing these in a mapper or setting the layer settings for the layers ?   I would recommend, that you add some MapBasic code to a copy of your workspace to make some speed testing.   At the top of

[MI-L] Workspace not opening all the way

Hi All,   I checked the archives and found the same question but no response from like 2001. Googled the message and couldn’t find anything either.  I’ve had this problem occasionally and would just start over from scratch and don’t want to do that any more if I can fix or prevent this fr

Re: [MI-L] Workspace not opening all the way

Valerie, Sounds like there's a query embedded in the workspace, for which the SQL syntax is incorrect.  Specifically, there may be a problem with whether all parentheses occur in pairs of one opening "(" and one closing ")" You may want to open the workspace in a text editor and examine any S

RE: [MI-L] MapInfo Pro - Oracle Spatial

I guess you are adding a new record to the table ? If so the problem is that you need to enter a unique value into the column MI_PRINX. The best solution would of course be to add a trigger in the Oracle database, that using a Sequence will update this column for you. This is one of the few thin

Re: [MI-L] MI-L Mr Sid Image Error

Hi Bill, I am using the latest version of MapInfo, build 33 (version 8). I opened other images fromn this site four months ago without a problem. So do you mean that the Mr Sid format may have been upgraded and we now need to possibly wait for MapInfo 8.5? Cheers, Bill ===

Does anyone know where I can get a map index for Brazil maps, produced at 100K scale. I am starting a new project in MapInfo. If you go to this website, IBGE Website http://www.ibge.gov.br/english/# it allows you to download PDF, TIF and DGN maps at various scales (click on Download > Geoscie

RE: [MI-L] sql select

Robert,   Another way, that works regardless of whether or not either table is mappable is a query of this form:   Tables {TableA} Where {ID in (select ID from TableB)}   Or:   Tables {TableB} Where {ID in (select ID from TableA)}     Cheers David L   -Original Messag

Re: [MI-L] MI-L Mr Sid Image Error

Bill,   How about exporting the SID file out of Global Mapper as a geoTiff for use in MapInfo.  I have had good success changing projections of raster files within Global Mapper for use with MapInfo.   Dan == Daniel P. Laux Geologist South Branch Resources LLC Apache Junct

RE: [MI-L] Mr Sid Image Error(s)

Perhaps it is due to a MrSID block-size error? Apparently this causes problems with a range of software, including LizardTech’s own GeoExpress (prior to the Feb2006 patches).   Recently this free utility (from LizardTech) was useful to me –   MrSID Blocksize Reset Utility for MG3 File

RE: [MI-L] MI-L Mr Sid Image Error

An alternative (a better one than a GeoTiff export, in my opinion) would be to convert to ECW format, which is a better format than either SID or TIF.   There are 3 faster decoders of MrSID files than the LizardTech free MrSIDDecode.exe, if anyone is interested.   IL Thomas GeoSciSo
