Just use a Table > Update Column
Lets say we have 2 tables: RegionTable, TextTable
Also lets assume that RegionTable has a empty field of type char
>From the menu choose Table > Update Column
Table to update: RegionTable
Column to update: Empty Field of type char
Get Value Fron Table: TextTable
Join: Where TextTable is within RegionTable
Calculate: Value
Of: Expression: ObjectInfo(obj,3)
Or From the menu choose Options > Show MapBasic Window and type the following:
Add Column "RegionTable" (EmptyCharField) From TextTable Set To
Objectinfo(obj,3) Where Within
Note the above should be entered on one line.
Hit Enter to execute the code.
I hope the above was of help
