Hi all,

I am trying to find information on what software and hardware requirements
and skills are necessary to start an Internet mapping project. I work with a
lot of clients across the country updating or generating street files and
municipal boundaries and zones. Ideally I would like to be able to upload my
MapInfo files that I am working on and be able to show the client the areas
where I need more information. They would be able to pan and zoom and even
add or move line segments. How much work would be involved in setting
something like this up? Thanks for any advice or ideas you can provide.

Steve

Listers,

I am trying to code into my application the ability to zoom into a selected
object created on the cosmetic layer. I have done some trawling of the list
and have got so far but I'm having problems. 

Dim sCosmetic As String
sCosmetic = LayerInfo(FrontWindow(), 0, LAYER_INFO_NAME)

'I create my point here!

Select * From sCosmetic Into _SelectionTab
Add Map layer _SelectionTab
Set Map Zoom Entire Layer _SelectionTab
Close Table _SelectionTab 

The app is falling over here telling me that _SelectionTab is not open? And
yet it features in the layer control...Any ideas?

As a way around it I am trying to call 'M_QUERY_FIND_SELECTION' as defined
in the Menu.def. However,

Call M_QUERY_FIND_SELECTION

Returns 'Found [306] while searching for an identifier.' 

I know that 306 is the ID, I'm missing something obvious. Can you only call
items such as this from a menu item...

Yours frustrated and getting nowhere fast,
Dave
