You can have more then one field at a time displayed. In the labels, choose functions 
and add col1 + col2 +... Since you want to see the text with a separator, you should 
use a blank space like col1 + " " +col2 + " "+...  

You can even put them on separate line using chr$(13) to use as carriage return 
between lines:

Here's an example : col1+Chr$(13)+col2+Chr$(13)+col3+Chr$(13)+...

Hope this help

I guess you are talking about the tooltip that showns when you hold your mouse over a 
object in the map.

What you see here is what you have told MapInfo to use as label expression, so you can 
just change the label expression to contain the entire list of columns, and then 
you'll see every little information from your record. Just remember that the label 
expression is limited to approx. 254 charaters.

I'm almost embarassed to ask, but I'm on a short timeline.  I have created my tables, 
geocoded them, and can display them on a map.  If I highlight an item that was mapped, 
I see the first field that came from the table.  Is there a way to display the whole 
record, or other parts of it?

Thanks.
