CJ, if you are trying to pick out different object types in a table, like Text, lines, regions etc. you can set that up in the Select dialog. The value you are looking for would be typed in as such: str$(obj)="Text" or str$(obj)="Line" the object types you can choose from are Line, Polyline, Text, Region, Ellipse, and Arc I think. Hope that helps, Jason ps. you can use something similar to update a new text column with the object type. When you Update Column, you would just type in str$(obj) as the value, and it will fill in the value for each row with it's object type. _____________________________ Jason Adam Computer Draftsperson De Beers Canada Exploration Inc.
