OK,
This is frustrating . . . I am trying to create points from a flat file that is mappable. However, I am using variables for the column names as I am having the user select the columns to use. The syntax is something like this: Update <table> Set obj = CreatePoint(xcoord, ycoord) In the Mapbasic example is has the names of the columns, however, when I input the variable names such as: Update vName Set obj = CreatePoint(vLongname,vLatname) I get the following error: Could not convert data. CreatePoint: argument 1 has invalid type The variables are strings, what am I missing Any help appreciated NTN
