Paul I don't know about an internal "Mapinfo ID" but, if you mean the row ID of each record then, to do this via MapBasic, something like:
Dim lnID, lnRowID as INTEGER lnID = 1 Fetch First From MyTable Do while not EOT( MyTable) lnRowID = RowID Update MyTable set IDColName = lnID where RowID = lnRowID lnID = lnID + 1 Fetch Next From MyTable Loop HTH Terry McDonnell -----Original Message----- Hello there, I'm not the best GIS person in the world by any means, and I'm looking for some help. I have a table of points and I would like to update one of the columns with the table's internal Mapinfo ID. How do I do this? Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated. All the best, Paul. --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 12512
