You can select using a mapbasic commands in select statement.

 

Start by using this one to give you the colour of your lines:

 

Select StyleAttr(Objectinfo(Obj,2),4) from Table into Selection

 

 

Then insert the colour that you want to select  into the following statement:

 

Select * from Table where StyleAttr(Objectinfo(Obj,2),4) = 16711680 into Selection

 

Alternatively,  I think that Bill Thoen had a mapbasic program that allowed you to do this very well.

Subject: [MI-L] MI-L : Funny One - Is there a way to select by boundarycolour?...

 

Hello All,

 

This is an odd one – I have received a table containing about 3,000 sites. Approximately half of which have been updated and half haven’t. The problem is that the data capture team doing the updates have simply coloured the updated sites red and the left the unupdated ones black – they haven’t added a column to the database unfortunately.

 

As you can imagine manually selecting all the red ones would be a pain as they are scattered amongst the table. Is there anyway or any tool that can select all the “red” site boundaries??

 

Told you it was a funny one!!

 

Cheers!
