I downloaded the 4.01 patch from the web (www.mapx.com) yesterday and
successfully installed it at the second attempt. The result works OK in VB6.

The only problem I have noticed with v4 is that SearchAtPoint seems only to
find one object from a layer even though there are several at the selected
point. v3 found all of the objects ok.

Subject: MI MapX version 4.01 patch & General Problems in 4.0


I have a copy of the MapX 4.01 patch, obtained from the Mapx discussion
pages.

However, when it's installed the ocx is replaced with a version that doesnt
work in visual basic 6.0.  It doesnt appear in the activex components dialog
and when you try to include the control it fails.  VB thinks its an invaild
and unregistered ActiveX component.

Hence, when you try and use regsrvr32.exe this also fails to register the
activeX control.

Has anyone found a similar problem, got a solution or a new version for the
patch.

I need an update to v4.0 since this version seems to produce anomalous
calculations when performing buffering and intersections using active server
layers attached to the LayerInfo object.

Another problem with version 4.0 is the inablility to reference items in
Layers and Feature collections as in version 3.0.  Again, I'm using a server
layer in Oracle Spatial 8i.

The following doesnt work...

dim ftr as new feature

        ftr = ftrs.item(1)

        OR

        ftr = ftrs(1)

Tech support suggest that this works but it does not in  version 4.0 without
the patch.

Does anyone have a version 4.01 patch that works with VB6.0???
