Re: MI - selecting text objects

[Bob Young - www.bydesignwales.demon.co.uk]

Dear Tom

In MapInfo run a query where:-

        ObjectInfo(obj,1) = 10

put output into say WSAtext

then delete al in WSAtext which will also delete the records in the main
table.

If you use the above code in MapBasic then include "MapBasic.def"

then you can select with
        ObjectInfo(obj,OBJ_INFO_TYPE) = OBJ_TYPE_TEXT

The MapBasic.def defines the values as 1 and 10. In MapInfo you have to
use the numbers.
