ProViewer is designed to open any table or workspace that MI Pro can open.
Other file types (mdb, xls, and remote tables) must first be set up as
MapInfo tables (.tab files). ProViewer does not have the means to do this,
but it can be done easily with MI Pro. In the case of remote tables, the
ODBC infrastructure must also be installed.
