Hello Phil
Solving your problem in mapbasic is probably a very slow task, if your many
tables have any significant size and many colors to replace.
If you know how to export all your files to mif/mid format (using mapbasic),
you could simply do a search and replace on the code, which equals the
linetype you want to change. Some of the more advanced editors (UltraEdit)
can probably do this on multiple files in one operation.
Search for "Pen (1,2,16776960)" and replace with "Pen (4,2,15790080)"
(these are in fact thin yellow and a thicker, darker yellow.)
Then you would have to import all files again.
Not a perfect solution, but might do unless something better shows up.
