Hello there!! what i understand from your question is that you have a Mapinfo table in which there are all the 3types of features (regions, poly/lines and text features) And you want to select them separately in from that layer to do your further processing..
OK, In the Query--> SQL Select --> in the condition slot you can give this statement along with the other queries. Incase you want to select all the regions use this statement str$(obj) = "region" will select only regions same to select polylines, symbols and text str$(obj) = "polyline" will select only polylines str$(obj) = "symbol" will select only symbols str$(obj) = "Text" will select only text hope this solves ur problem.. regards Seetharamayya/ Ramesh GIS Database and Systems Officer Anglo American Exploration India Tej Kunj Ambavgarh Udaipur - Rajasthan INDIA Mob: +91 294 - 3101041 --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I got a mapinfo file from a customer and the format > is > weird. > The tab files is basically county boundaries for > California state.
