With post-WIN 2000 OS Mapinfo stores them locally and separate for each user
of the machine (if there are more than one)
I think you will find them at "C:\Documents and Settings\(you login
name)\Application Data\MapInfo\MapInfo\Professional\650\CustSymb

Hope this helps

Subject: MI-L Custom symbols in Win XP


We are upgrading our OS to Win XP and I am testing MapInfo v 7.0.  I have a
set of custom symbols  (standard format) which I used in v 6.0.

I cannot for the life of me figure out where the custsymb folder is

Searched for preloded bitmaps (ie ambul32.bmp) and only could find then in
a cab archive file in C:\program
files\MapInfo\Professional\AddUser\Data.cab

Any ideas on where/how I can add my own custom symbols ?

Thanks,

Ross Wootton
