Søren, That fixes my custom symbols on my local drive, does this mean all other users have to do the same thing? Is there no way to use the network directory directly so that everyone gets the new symbols immediately without having to update the local drive?

Try this mb file. It's not tested ;-) Look esp. at lines around 68...

Now how do I change the default directory to one on the network? Robert Davis GIS Officer Alpine Shire Council Great Alpine Road P.O.

You can launch the app through a workspace.

Also is there an easy way to keep my own custom labels when a new version of Mapinfo is loaded - and why do they move the CUSTSYMB directory between versions and not tell you? Also does anyone out there know of a good symbol set for Australian Local Government and traffic signs suitable for Mapinfo?
