Hello all,

Forgive me for not knowing the correct terminology for this process (witness
subject line)...

I'd like to take a point in one file and select a set of all surrounding
points representing a certain percentage of the surrounding points.  For
example, given a file of 100 points representing customers, I'd want to
select the closest 80 (or 50 or any user chosen number or percentage).

The second related goal would be selecting outward against a data value in
the point
table - i.e. if the target 100 points have a column of data representing
dollars, select outward until hitting the desired percent of total dollars.

This is different from grid interpolating/contouring - it is the selection
process I'm really interested in.  So if that is clear enough, I'm seeking a
tool
for free or for sale that will make MI Pro do this.

Thanks.
