Thanks Moshe.  
   
  Actually, I did a select by location and got all the the nodes for the 
closest instesection to my centroid layer.  My endpoint node layer for my 
streets (not caliper streets), however, has only the latt/long as attributes.  
What I need is the names of the all the streets that intersect where the node 
lies, not just the latt/long.  I need to put these names from the street layer 
in my node dataview somehow.  Does this make sense?  Maybe I'm just missing 
something simple?

          Perhaps I'm missing something here, but can't you just tag your 
centroid layer with the nearest node? If you're using the Caliper streets file, 
I'm referring to the the layer named "CDF node layer" that is hidden by 
default-- it has a point for every intersection. 

Type "tagging" into Maptitude help for more info about this operation-- it 
behaves slightly differently depending on whether you are using point, line, or 
polygon layers.

  I have a centroid point layer and want to overlay this with my street layer 
in order to select the nearest intersection to the centroid point.  Is there a 
way to do this in Maptitude 4.8 outside of GISDK?  I'm not much of a coder, so 
I was hoping to find a way to due this with existing features of Maptitude.  
Any advice is appreciated!
   
  Thanks
