My experience of using MapInfo 6.5 with an HP8550 laserjet is that the PS option gives more consistent results. No real problems with that printer. Recommended in fact. Richard. -Original Message- From: Kent Treichel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 10 May 2002 04:25 To: [EMAIL

You say they don't exactly overlay. That doesn't matter as long as they do overlay to some degree. As long as they do, you can use the INTERSECTS operator in your spatial query - this will match all objects in the two tables that intersect each other. Richard -Original Message- From:

Thanks to all those who suggested solutions to my Vertical Mapper error. The problem was indeed the size of the grid cells (11m). I used resizer to increase the cell size to 20m and then re-ran my slope analysis with no problems. I am sure that splitting the file would have worked too but 20m

Eric, Harold is right - you can use the ArcLink tool. However, having installed MapInfo 6.5 yesterday, I noticed that you can now use the Universal Translator for E00 files. The UT is more simple to use for a 'one off' file, but ArcLink is more flexible and you can set up batch conversions.
