Hello,

PLEASE SEND ALL BET PROCEEDS TO ME.........

Take a zip polygon table and index the zip-code field.
Use Query>Find [Ctrl+F] select the zip-code field and magic the centroid of
the zip.

You can also do this on point tables.

If you are working in MapBasic, you will not get a 1 or 2 for the return
code but 411 [I think--I'll have to dig the 10k lines of Delphi code, it is
positive and greater than 2 which puts a twist on the code -- negative is
failed ]

*Find Using* and *Find* then getting L/L and center/zoom map does work for
*non-address* fields.
