List,

I'm trying to find out how many MIPro users would be interested in a
program we created.  MIPro users already know the problems associated with
having custom labels inside saved workspaces.  When a table is updated or
overwritten (rearranging the rowid), the label no longer corresponds to
the new table.  

This program is a windows application that searches for all .wor files by
directory, and clears all custom labels.  This is the same as doing a
"clear custom labels..." from a map window, but this will do every map
window within the workspace and within the directory specified.  This can
be performed on a single table, multiple tables or all tables through the
windows text dialog box.  It can also be run in test mode, which returns
the workspace name and complete directory locations, before any action is
taken.

Please let me know if you are interested or see a use for the program.  I
ran into this problem when getting StreetPro updates that are referenced
in many, many workspaces with custom labels.  I couldn't use the data
without first getting rid of the custom labels.  Now if only MI had a
better way to display labels, but that's another subject....

Thanks,
-Bob
