Thank you for mentioning that application. My first reading of Claude's
message was that FixShade would be more appropriate (to be used for range
thematic, also available on the site).

I have changed the date stamp to end of 2004 on the zip available for
download.

I put such a stamp on "new" software when I am not sure of its
functionality; I prefer waiting for any feedback from "real life" users to
make suggested improvements or changes. For example, the "It's a bit tricky
to use" comment could indicate a faulty documentation or some design fault.
In either case, I could do something; but what exactly?

Claude,

It's a bit tricky to use but Jacques Paris has a program called
IndiValuThematics in the beta testing section of his website which does
exactly what you need:

http://www.paris-pc-gis.com/

To use the program you will first have to set the date on your
workstation to before 31.12.03 as the program is time stamped to expire
on this date.

The program can be quite frustrating so here a few tips on how to use it
(you will need to go through this exact procedure every time):

1. Open the table you wish to apply the thematic to and apply one of the
MapInfo default thematics to the table (do not spend time changing the
styles etc - you will lose it!).

2. Define a new IVT template from this thematic (do not spend time
changing the styles etc - you will lose it again here!).

3. Run IVT; you can now set all your styles etc. The program will assign
these styles to the objects in your table.  Note that the table it
creates will only contain one column - the one you created a thematic
from.  The data is easily reapplied using your original table however.

Drop me line if you have problems with it.

anyone ever hear of a tool that will allow you to apply the assign the
thematic styles to the layer's actual base properties...so if you had a
bunch of regions colored by values, you would be able to convert the
actual table's properties to adopt the values of the thematic?
thanks,
Claude
