Hi Peter, Here is an example I just made:
dim numPoints as integer dim numLines as integer dim numRegions as integer open file "link.map" for binary access read as #1 get #1,317,numPoints get #1,321,numLines get #1,325,numRegions close file #1 print numPoints print numLines print numRegions I have normally been doing this from Delphi, but mapbasic seems to handle this situation OK.

MI-L Drawing Order Great ! Streange that has never been accessible from within MapBasic. I know that it was kind of accessible using MapX where you could be told which objecttype was dominant. Uffe, do you have an example of how to access these information from MapBasic ? I guess it's pretty simeple if you have been working with binary files ?
