Darrin, We developed a tool to automate batch map production, zooming to each object in a table (such as ZIP codes) in turn, creating a .wor and optionally printing and creating digital output. You can specify a column (such as ZIP) for the title of each layout. (Single layout created for each .wor).
More information can be found at: http://www.spatialinsights.com/catalog/products/spatial/mapomatic/. Price is $695. If you have any questions or need more information, please don't hesitate to contact me. Sincerely, Erin Rubio Spatial Insights, Inc.

Since we don't have MapBasic, we're using the "Fetch First, Fetch Next" workaround to loop through records in the MapBasic window. (This was a great trick someone on the MI-L suggested.) However, we're finding that the Fetch Next seems to periodically "flip out" and skip a bunch of records or goes back to records already used. Anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it? I read some old archives about making sure the table is packed but that didn't help. 2) For the same job, we want the ZIP code to appear in the layout title. Simple enough for the first one but as each map would have a different ZIP code, we can't find any way of deleting the previous title or editing it through the MapBasic window. I don't want to create a new layout each time. (This must be easy but someone asked this group the exact same question two years ago but there were no answers). Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
