It would appear the simple thing to do is export to a text file, update the
columns in Excel or Access, then dump the stuff back into MI
In Excel, my solution was to use the following formula:
For column A
=If(find("%%d"),A4),A4,"")
Thanks,

Subject: MI-L Need IF statement to update column
Greetings List,
I've seen references to this before but never seem to find what will apply
to the need at the time.
I know there's no "IF" statement for use in Mapinfo but realize there's a
way around this but I can't seem to find the path :)
<Do this> IF()
IF() <do this> ELSE(<do this>)
I wish to update a column with specific data from another,
Update BEARING with TEMP If "%%d" is found in TEMP ELSE <don't do anything>
%%d is literal, not wild cards "%". This data was converted from a DWG
file.
Thanks,
David Reid
