Is it possible to produce an output whereby the user can open the excel interface and view both the thematic map and the excel sheet, and can change the variables in the excel sheet and see an automatically updated thematic map? Any suggestions will as always be very helpful! Thanks a million! - john -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Nielsen \(Hvenegaard\)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [MI-L] Menus - swapping in and out To: "Terry McDonnell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[email protected]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hi Terry, All menus are created independently of each other in the "common" area of Pro. You can define any number of additional menus (within GDI limits) and attach them anywhere in the current menu system: menu bar, existing standard menus, existing shortcut menus, user defined menus etc. So you don't "delete" standard menus by defining your own menus or replacing the menu bar. All defined menus incl. standard menus are still defined and ready for use as long as Pro runs (only menu items with an attached mbx based handler sub will be removed automatically when the app closes). The problem arises when several mbx's want to add menus to the singular menu bar. The menu bar is NOT a saved GDI resource (like the menus), it only references them. And unfortunately it's impossible to retrieve information about its current state, so the only possible "backstep" is to recreate the default. "Create Menu Bar As Default" will recreate the standard menu bar, and all menus added by mbx's to the MENU BAR will be lost. The menus themselves are not lost, the menu bar just doesn't reference them anymore. This is why adding your menus to the Tools menu instead of the menu bar makes sense, because that'll ensure that your menus are restored (along with the Tools menu) when you recreate the standard menu bar. If it's a question of "minimizing" the standard menu bar, not just hiding it, I'll recommend changing the initial menu bar this way (translated from Danish, so the words may differ slightly): Create Menu "MapInfo" As "Files" as "Files", "Edit" as "Edit", "Tools" as "Tools", "Objects" as "Objects", "Query" as "Query", "Table" as "Table", "Settings" as "Settings", "WinSpecific" as "WinSpecific", "Window" as "Window", "Help" as "Help" Create Menu Bar As "MapInfo" Best regards / Med venlig hilsen Lars V.

Now I want to: Replace the std MI menu with my own When the user closes my app's window I want my menus to disappear and the std. MI menu to replace it. This is because my users use native MI too and want to be able to simply revert to this. Now I know all about usng the WinClosedHandler() to bring this about - at the moment I just disappear all my windows. What I'd like is to know a simple and efficient way of achieving the above. The Menu Bar Hide command doesn't specify WHICH menu to hide/show. Is there some way of swapping menus in and out?
