G'day Andrew,

Firstly ensure that the coordinate units are set correctly (the default is
lat/long).  A simple way is to change the map projection to something else,
then change it back again !

Use Table->Update column using the expression CentroidX(obj), then repeat using
CentroidY(obj).

Regards

Neil Moseley
