Hi there,
I am attempting to create an editor in VB to view/edit point data from
MapInfo. I want this editor to be an add-on to my core MapInfo application
as oppose to an integrated mapping solution. Any ideas? I would like to use
VB as I require some dialog controls that are not available in MapBasic. I
have a few questions that I would appreciate help on:
1. As part of the editor I wish to display the attribute information of the
currently selected row of the MapInfo .tab file (similar to the info tool)
what is the most efficient way to access this data from VB. As my first
attempt I havethe following (where TSG holds the tablename) This works but I
am wondering is there a better approach than calling Eval for each
individual attribute.
FrmSignEditor.Text1.Text = mi.Eval(TSG + ".SignGroupID")
FrmSignEditor.Text2.Text = mi.Eval(TSG + ".NoOfPosts")
FrmSignEditor.Text3.Text = mi.Eval(TSG + ".PostHeight")
FrmSignEditor.Text4.Text = mi.Eval(TSG + ".PostType")
FrmSignEditor.Text6.Text = mi.Eval(TSG + ".Terrain")
FrmSignEditor.Text7.Text = mi.Eval(TSG + ".Comment")
2. Any ideas on where I can locate some good VB/MapInfo Resources.
I am currently running VB5 and MapInfo Prof.5 and MapBasic5. Any help is
greatly appreciated.
thank -you,
Aine Deery
