RE: MI-L Default settings directory

[Peter Horsb�ll M�ller]

Hi Thomas,

There is where - as far as I know - where you can tell MapInfo where to look
for these files. MapInfo has a few places where it tries to locate the
files. On eof these is the MapInfo Program directory and another is the
exact same path as where you have them except the last CustSymb folder.
(C:\Documents and Settings\ngtetbl\Application
Data\MapInfo\MapInfo\Professional\700\MAPINFOW.FNT)

The CustSymb directory is only for bitmap symbols.

So move them up one directory and you'll stop being asked to locate them
