I would like to automatically add text to a layout which states the LL of 
either a point or the centroid of an object and also "scale on paper". I 
was wondering if there is some way of automating this process. Currently I 
have a "generic" layout with the basic info but I have to manually edit the 
text  boxes to reflect changes when I add a different TAB file for another 
region.  I get the info by hovering over the point to get the coordinates 
and then type them in the layout. Is there something I could paste in each 
layout which would do this???   I guess it could be added in the Mapper as 
well and I could move it to a good display location. I tried adding a frame 
in the layout which contains the Browser, but there is too much extraneous 
info.

Also, whenever I create a new TAB file I get red regions and star points. I 
then have to manual override them to the colors I prefer. How can I change 
the default for point line and regions???

Thanks..........tom
