Greetings All: Is there a way to get MapInfoPro 6.5 to recalculate polygon centroids??

I know I can, using "Reshape", manually drag "centroids" to a new position, which, I'm 
guessing, I will end up doing anyway.

My problem: Statewide county map with each county a polygon but the centroids of even 
the squarish counties are a long way from the center. I've geo-coded some locations to 
each county putting the points on top of each other at the "centroid" of each county. 
Disperse will (poorly) move the location points away from each other, and sometimes 
into another county.

Conversely, is there a way to disperse my points constrained by county boundaries??  I 
don't care much where the points are except they need to stay inside their respective 
counties.

...thanks  ...Bob
