This works fine but for some reason the colour settings in mapx do not match the resulting colours of the newly created thematic map in MapInfo. Dim ThmeFields As String Dim slittle() As String Dim mapbasicCmd As String mapbasicCmd = "Shade window frontwindow() 1 with " & ThmeFields & " ranges apply color " mapbasicCmd = mapbasicCmd & slittle(0) & ": " & slittle(1) & " Brush (2," & slittle(2) & "), " objMapInfo.Do mapbasicCmd I have ommitted the background colour e.t.c I tried also to use the RGB function to work it out I am surprised at this because I thought that the colours in mapX and MapInfo would be the same Does anyone know if mapinfo has a colour pallete or something that may cause this? What seems to be happening is that the RGB red values being recorded are actually the values for the RGB blue colour e.g. Red 128 Green 255 Blue 255 when it should be (is in MapX) Red 255 Green 255 and Blue 128 Thanks Scott Pontifex GIS Programmer Demography/Population Program Secretariat of the Pacific Community (SPC) B.P.D5, Noumea Cedex 98848 New Caledonia Phone (687) 26.20.00 ext(331) Fax (687) 26.38.18 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.spc.int/demog --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
