Ivan,
The reason you're seeing a performance difference is that the .cdf format is optimized for Maptitude's underlying database, while .tab (MapInfo's format) is not. Once you've opened the .tab file in Maptitude, you should be able to export it to .cdf format using Tools... export. You'll probably have to do this in two steps: Step #1: convert .tab to .dbd (editable, but not optimized Mapt format) Step #2: convert .dbd to .cdf (optimized, but not editable Mapt format) Good luck! P.S. If you need to automate this process in GISDK, look at the AddMITABLayer() and ExportGeography() commands. --- In [email protected], Ivan Marcelo Ferreira <ivan.marcelo.ferreira@...> wrote: > > Hi, > > We have a map in a .tab file and the same map in a .cdf file.
