Ian, I haven't done this in MapXtreme yet, but have in MapX so I think I know how to do it. When the user click the map, it will call another ASP page. Take the x,y coords of the click point and convert to Lat/Long using Map.ConvertCoordV. Take the lat/long and do a search at that point with Layer.SearchAtPoint. This will select the point they clicked. You can also use Layer.SearchWithinDistance to get nearby points. Once you have your features collection, you pull out the fields you need with Layer.KeyField and Feature.KeyValue and then throw them out as HTML. This requires a page refresh. There might be a way to do this by placing the point details into another frame without reloading the map frame, but I haven;t tried to figure it out yet. - Brad > -----Original Message----- > From: Ian Cazabat [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2000 6:37 AM > To: Mapinfo-L (E-mail) > Subject: MI MapXtreme NT Pulling Additional Information from Database > & Displ aying > > Okay, next problem.
