Maybe you need to make your table mappable before using this update command.
Go to Table > Maintenance > Table Structure, Check Mappable and select the projection you want. It might also be a good idea to specify the projection before creating the points, unless you are using a newer version of MapInfo (7.0, 7.5 or 7.8) were you have specified the correct session projection. You can specify the projection in this way: Set CoordSys Table Tampa_plots1 Of course this requires that the coordinates in your table are in the same projection as the table Peter Horsb�ll M�ller GIS Developer Geographical Information & IT COWI A/S Odensevej 95 DK-5260 Odense S.
