Hello MI Folks!
I have a database of information in Excel format and I have converted it
to a DBF 4 file (after defining the field types to numeric with the
appropriate decimal places) but for some reason MapInfo won't recognize
two of my columns as numeric. These columns hold sample records in every
4th cell. I attempted entering zeroes in the blank cells and defining
the column as numeric but when I try to open the DBF, I get the message
"Cannot open table. Unable to open table CFgrapes.".
With the original data I was able to create points from my lat/long
values and then map other columns of data, but since attempting to
manipulate the file to view the sample records for mapping, I can no
longer import the DBF.
I am using MapInfo 7.5
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Sharon Janzen
