Hi Karl - The seamless map facility can be used with 4000 maps with only a minimum of performance degradation. Just remember that alle the separate raster maps must be oriented in the same direction. This requirement is actually true every time MapInfo shows more that 1 raster map in the same mapperwindow.
The seamless map facility will probably allways be faster than _any_ solution based om MapBasic, simply because MapBasic code is interpreted (and MapBasic has a very, very slow interpreter) and MapInfo is a compiled c or c++ program. regards Bo Thomsen GeoConsult I/S Denmark -----Oprindelig meddelelse----- Fra: Karl Acs [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sendt: 20. december 2003 09:52 Til: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Emne: MI-L MB: Tool for automatic opening of tables ? Hi all, I�m looking for a tool, which opens tables corresponding to the actual coordinates of a map window? To explain my problem: I have about 4000 orthophotos - and don�t know if it�s a good solution to put them all in a seamless map (performance?). so i thought, the only way is to write a mb-tool which reads in the actual center coordinates of the map window, looks in a reference-table (which has the areas and the names of the corresponding photo-filenames) via searchpoint,... and then opens the photo. Is this the right way, or does anybody have a different solution ?
