Hi Tim

Thanks for the reply.

I want to make it mappable.

This is a table that HAD graphic objects.  Trouble is, I needed to
update my foxpro master database with it, and update it with its master
from the foxpro database.  In so doing, I think I overwrote the MI .dbf
table with its foxpro .dbf table (which gets registered into MI), thus,
I think, destroying its objects, as now it has none.

I can't recall how I made it mappable in the first place, though.  Its
fields/columns are as follows:

Bus route ID (comnposite key)
Elementary Street Unit (ESU) ID.

Now the ESU ID points to a Streets table of ESUs.  Each ESU is a
polyline street "segment"  I don't know enough MI to understand how this
gets its X1/Y1 - X2/Y2 and centroid X/Y values.  I inherited the table
and I can't discern any column that remotely resembles lat/long, X/Y -
whatever.

The table in question represents bus routes.  In creating a bus route I
just pinch the objects from seleted ESUs from the Streets table, and I
have a set of polylines representing a route.

Is this clear?

Cheers

Terry

Is your table mapable - and you are trying to extract Long/Lat or is it
just a data table with no relationship to a map?

Thanks!

Hi List
 
I'll rephrase a previous post:
 
How do I geocode a table that does not have any obvious numeric x/y
co-ord type columns?  
 
I have a table that has lost its geographical objects and can't remember
how I did it way back. 
It takes its values (polylines) from another table that itself has no
obvious x/y columns, as I click on that table to select polylines.
 
'ppreciate it
