I'm having trouble updating an integer column in one of my MapInfo tables.
I want to add a number 2 to a column titled LandUse.  I go to Table Update
Column, select the appropriate table and column.  Then in the value section
I put LandUse = 2.  I don't get any results or error messages.  The LandUse
column appears just as before with a 0 in every field.  I then converted
the LandUse column to a character and tried to update the column that way.
This time in Table Update Column in the value section I put LandUse = "2".
This time MI updates the column with an "F".  No matter what character I
try to update the column with I get an F.  Does anybody have a clue to what
is going on here (for the integer and character column)?  Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
