Objet : MI-L SUM Problems creating buffer in MapBasic

Thanks to all who helped with this issue, though there was no definite
answer to this problem I was offered a work around which whilst not entirely
desirable, certainly does the trick.  Here is a summary of the problem and
its workaround:

PROBLEM

I needed to create an internal buffer of objects in a table, this could be
achieved on my data using the buffer menu option, I did not however want the
buffer created in my original table - nor did I want to create a specific
buffer table! I also needed the buffer to be created using MapBasic code as
part of a program.  The problem occurs when trying to create a buffer into
an object variable, when doing this MapInfo throws up the following warning
message:

"Warning: Operation did not produce a result.  No errors detected"

The object variable is properly initialised and the MB statement is correct.

SOLUTION

The simplest solution came from Paul Crisp:

"You COULD just do something like this
(because it works)

Set the cosmetic layer editable
Create the buffer into the cosmetic layer
Fish the object out of the cosmetic layer
Clear the cosmetic layer out and set it editable off."

ISSUES

There is no feasible reason why the code and data I am using will cause
MapInfo to produce the error as the exact same data and statement will allow
a buffer to be created in a separate table or the cosmetic layer.  I feel
this is something that requires further investigation!
