One way to reduce or eliminate this non-snap problem is to use a real table for your target object amd to make sure that you've set the session's coordsys to match the table's. The Coasmetic layer doesn't have the same precision as a real table so things won't snap perfectly. So instead, make a temporary table to hold your target object(s), set its cordsys to match your boundary table and in the MapBasic window type: Set CoordSys table <your boundary table> - Bill Thoen _______________________________________________ MapInfo-L mailing list [email protected] http://www.directionsmag.com/mailman/listinfo/mapinfo-l
