There is a function in MapInfo called "Object, Snap/thin" which will do
this. It was introduced with MapInfo 6.5. If you have an older version
of MI, a similar function is also included with our ToolBox, which only
requires MapInfo 4.5

Subject: MI-L Generalization
Dear all
Does someone know a tool or a way in which MI would allow me to simplify
a
network? MapInfo describes it as: The process of simplifying a data set
to a
size which can be easily manipulated and represented. For example, a
river
may have many twists and turns; however, if a map covers a very large
area,
the river may be represented as a straight line. Similarly, in a map of
a
very large area, a city might be represented as a point marker.
I have to generalize the rail network for illustrations. Which function
in
MI should I use?
Thank you for your help.
Kind regards
