The instructions tell you to "open the tables you want to include in the seamless map sheet and display them in a map window". I opened multiple tab files and it has seemed to have grouped them two per window. Why is this? Why does it not either load them all into the same window or individually? See the image from the link below. http://www.ezblitz.com/pics/mapinfo.jpg Anyhow, when I go to create a seamless layer, it only merges the tables that are loaded in the currently 'focussed' window on the screen, i.e. I can only merge two at a time. Is there anyway to get the seamless manager to merge all tables that are open? Or, how can I load all tables into one window? Is there any other way of batch merging tables. All my tables have exactly the same format so there should be no problems there. Kind regards to the list Tim Smith --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 12694 ___________________________________________________________________ Electronic mail messages entering and leaving Arup business systems are scanned for acceptability of content and viruses. ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
