Dear Listers, I've a problem that is probably simple for You Old Wolves in
MI Pack.

I have two tables. The first contains some hospitals' localization (say 30,
in a region). The second contains each admissions these hospitals did in
one year, with each patient's city of residence (say approx. 200,000
patients for 2,000 cities/villages). I'd like to create a "catchment area"
for each hospital, in relation to their patients' residence. I thought to
build a "distance matrix" in kilometres, created using MI coordinates, and
the calculate the mean or median distance for each city/hospital, and
finally superimpose a "buffer" (or maybe drawing a simple circle...). Does
anyone have some suggestion/trick on the way to perform this in MI?
Sorry for my bad english, thank you in advance.
