In MapInfo, is it possible to do a proximity selection without using
buffering?  For example, let's say I have a database of McDonalds
restaurants and a database of interstate highways.  If I want to select all
of the McDonalds that are within 1 mile of the Interstates, do I HAVE to do
this by buffering, or is there a faster, simpler way to do this selection?
In ArcView this is incredibly quick and easy.
