Dave,
I have MI 8.0 and love the functionality that you dislike so much :-)
But, it has nothing to do with the version of MI, but is all about how the
TAB extension is registered in the registry and behaviour changes as
versions are installed, uninstalled etc. Unfortunately I can't remember how
it should look to get the functionality that you want back. Perhaps you have
another computer that behaves "correctly" and you can comparing the 2
registries (can be tedious work).

Uffe Kousgaard

Subject: [MI-L] [Spam] Startup behaviour difference - 4.5 vs 8.0
I've recently upgraded from MI 4.5 to MI 8.0.
With 4.5 I could have a workspace open in an instance of MI. If I then
double-clicked
on another *.tab file in a Windows folder, another instance of MapInfo
would open to
view the new tab file.
With MI 8.0 it behaves differently. The new *.tab file opens up in the
original instance
of MapInfo - even in the same map if the table is mappable. Most annoying.
Is there any way to get it to behave the same as MI 4.5 does? Or any
workaround?
Thanks,
Dave
