Hello, Just a note about: > 2. Looked at a few viewers to download from the web, including ones from > the Spatial News list of viewers. I looked at the Proviewer and it has to > many options and allows users to change data in tables. Have you installed ProViewer on "clean" machine? I found that it's behavior is dependent on whether or not MapInfo is installed on the machine ( editing data ) On a clean machine, pan/zoom is about it. Yes other "windows" can be opened and closed [map and browser independently] but it doesn't even have "layers" a layers control, something I want my users to have. My real problem is that " I " have to build the Workspaces and distribute them to the users, scattered across 12,000 sq.mi of south Texas. To the rescue, I developed ProDesigner that without [at this point] any graphical interface [working on a 3rd party map interface] allows more advanced users to create their own workspaces [data mining....]. Just about everything is there except for "thematics" --- they're a real pain in integrated apps. This is Delphi EXE and INI only so distribution is just a copy away.
