Subject: MI-L Update Column using text string of text object
Hello All,
I was wondering if anyone has a program or knows a way of updating a polygon
table with the text string value of the text object found inside each
polygon. I have a geology map with unique tags for each polygon but I would
like to have the tag text in the database for the polygons. I have tried
using MapInfo's Update column and SQL Query using the ObjectInfo function
but it is getting hung up with the OBJ_INFO_TEXTSTRING parameter. I am
assuming it needs the MapBasic definition file for this. Does this mean I
have to write an .mbx?
