Hi,
There is also available .mbx called p2p to convert polylines to point as many of you surely already knows. But I don�t know if lines can be converted to polylines within MapInfo alone. If you are using Vertical Mapper you can do it also: VM > Create Grid > Poly-to-Point. When i have used VM to convert, i have get error message (MI 7.5, VM 3.0): Error in MapInfo File Access Library Extended Error Value: 503 ...and I don�t know solution to that. Does anyone know? By using p2p I can do converting, but I�m just interested to know what error value 503 means.
