Ever get frustrated with a new piece of software that you get so 
     confused and all the naming and functions are located in different 
     places?  What a pain the you know what.  I have another question.  I 
     ma trying to create a regional maintenance area map for the field 
     services division of ARINC.  The maintence areas are divided into 
     regions named Northeast, eastern, central and etc.  They are comprised 
     of the boundaries of regional states.  I have been able to easily 
     select out and make a new layer of one of the regions, but I need to 
     get rid of the internal state boundaries and leave just the outside 
     boundary.  I can convert the objects (states) to polylines and select 
     and delete the necessary nodes that i do ot need, but I am still left 
     with a line that connects the first and last nodes that are left over 
     after the deletion of the unwanted nodes.
     
     I know in Arc/Info, its a simple dissovle command and it will get rid 
     of the inside lines.  Is there a similar command in MI that will do 
     the same.  I hate to bother you with this question,, but my books on 
     MI are absolutely useless for this type of editing.
     
     Thanks,
