Thanks everyone ... totally forgot about thematic maps.  Worked like a charm
and well also triggered some other thoughts so I am off to a great start.

Subject: Re: [MI-L] Points on a Map

Hi Sandra,

Yes, absolutely. I do that with assay values as well as, on regional
maps, deposit size. I've varied, symbol size, color, and both.

You can do a lot with thematic mapping in MI, but it's also possible to
query out the ranges and have them as separate layers in a mapper,
style-overriding each to a specific symbol/size/color if you need to do
something unusual. I've occasionally done the queries-as-layers approach
to put a white 'halo' of a slightly larger symbol just under whatever
colored symbol I'm displaying.
