Maybe this select will improve the hit rate - if it is supported by MapInfo ;-)

Select * 
        From POINTTAB, LINETAB
        Where Buffer(POINTTAB.OBJ, 12, 1, "m") Intersects LINETAB.OBJ

What it should do is add a buffer to the points so that the change of the 
points intersecting a line is better.

I use a buffer of 1 meter. Maybe you need to make is smaller or bigger 
depending on the accuracy of your data

As I said, I haven't tried it myself, so please let me know whether it actually 
does work

Subject: MI-L Joining point and line data


Is there  a way to join point data and line data. The
point data falls on the line data(road)

I tried doing a spatial join using an intersect but i
lost alot of point data.
 
Also, there is no common field between the 2 tables.

Thanks
