Hello,
I have a mapinfo table containing the NTS sheet index for Canada. The
tab file contains each sheet as a rectangle, with attributes that
include its name (ie "63 P/13"). I would like to update the table with 4
new attributes specifying the descriptor of the sheets north, south,
east and west of the sheet.
I can't figure out a way to generate that data.
I have mapinfo 7.5 without mapbasic.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks
