I have been asked how the object embedding works, it is covered in the reference manual under the term drag map window, but basically it goes something like this: The tool on the button bar is called drag map window (next to the label tool). You first set your desktop up so that you have both mapinfo and coreldraw (or word for that matter) open in separate windows and you can see both programs at the same time. You need the map you wish to put in coreldraw active in Mapinfo and the document you want to put the map in visible in coreldraw. You click on the tool when you have a map window active, and the hand on the icon will grab the handle (very cute). You then hold the mouse down while you move the icon over the document in coreldraw. The icon will change to show a plus sign. Let the mouse button go and you will get the map into your coreldraw document. You can now close mapinfo, but if you double click on the map in coreldraw, you can get some menu options to change the map as well. It has the added advantage that it is also sensative to data changes. Evidently copy/ paste will also work according to the manual. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
