Dear Users

I have two adjacent mapsheets that were drawn at 1:20,000 with resolution about 2.5 
meters.  The mapsheets are for all purposes adjacent to each other and there are 
several polygons that are cut by the Neatline (Boundary line) as well.  When I select 
one boundary polygon and ask to select the intersecting polygons using:

Select * from Poly where obj intersects any(Select obj from Selection) into Selection
  (Thanks to Jacob Bunt [EMAIL PROTECTED])

I get varying results.  For some mapsheets I get what I espect but for some I don't.  
When I check, zooming in many times between the lines, I notice that the polygons 
actually don't touch each other, there is a distance of 8.2 mm (millimeters).  Well, 
mathematically these polygons are not intersecting but for all practical purposes they 
are. 

I tried to change/reduce the internal resolution, exporting to mif/mid, working with 
bounds and importing back but it didn't intersect.  I wonder how is it possible to 
control the MapInfo distance "sensibility" in order to make MI to overcome this gap 
and to recognize the polygons 8.2 millimeters apart as intersecting ones, from maps 
based on 2.5 meters resolution?

Thanks for your consideration.
