Hello,   I wonder if it is directly related to Mapinfo (what is the message box title ?).   I get that from time to time on my computer with Wze32idtq.exe or effjg8i3aw.exe or kk4rxpa8ge.exe etc...etc...(the name is different every time the message box pops up) and apparently, it is related

Could mapinfo add this function to it's software.. When you're browsing for workspaces (open workspaces) you could see a thumbnail of your layout or map in your workspace instead of having a workspace icon type of file. (just like when you're browsing to a piture folder) So you don't have to o

Ok, I thought this would be an easy one. I have 50+ shapefiles (polygons, polylines, points) and I need them to be in a dwg format. I can do this manually with Autocad MAP one by one. However I want to batch it up. I have no budget to buy additional software. I have tried Universal Translator, c

The message itself has no meaning except that MapInfo tried to access a piece of memory it shouldn't have.   Are you both operating off the same physical MapInfo tables across a LAN?  If not, then perhaps one of the tables is corrupt.    Give the user a copy of the .WOR file with "prin

Hello Simon, Our Geographic Translator software is set up for that type of batch conversion.  It offers a 14 day evaluation period which should be ample to get your files converted.  You can download the installer from our site: http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/products/translator.php?op=downloa

You can not do this in MapBasic. Some use c,c++ or delphi to embed forms in dll to use from MapBasic in MapInfo. If your a novice devloper I would stick to the standard MapBasic dialogs. You could build a buttonpad (not a dialog) in MapBasic with toggle buttons and icon change on toggle. HTH Jak
