Thank you Russell And Tim for your reply.  I found that what Tim suggested
(what follows below) was able to accomplish what I was looking for.

Best Regards,

Rick

Rick,

It requires a few steps, but can be done without much difficulty:

1. make a copy of the regions
2. open the copy and combine all features into one (hereafter called
BIGREGION)
3. convert the original regions into polylines (hereafter called SPOKES)
4. convert BIGREGION into a polyline
5. create a small buffer around BIGREGION
6. set SPOKES editable, select all from SPOKES and do Objects-Set Target
7. select the buffer created in step 5
8. do an Objects-Erase

The size of the buffer to specify in step 5 depends on your needs.
Experiment with different sizes until you find one that works.

Subject: MI-L Keeping the inside lines of a region/pline






Hello Listers,

I had a question I was hoping someone can help me out with.  I have regions
that are sharing common boundaries.  I want to convert them to plines and
keep the common boundaries but delete the boundaries that are not shared.
For example I have a wheel with spokes.  I want to keep the spokes but not
the outer wheel circle.  Is there any tool or some other way to do this?

Any help in this matter is appreciated.

Thank you much,

Rick
