Re: MI MapInfo Compatibility Problems?

Hi Adrian, so I can't see why MI cannot at least allow some backward compatibility. I really feel the same. In my office, there are MI4.1Japanese, MI4.5J, MI5.0J and MI5.5English. MI5.5E can read every Workspace created by both same and lower Japanese versions of MI ...though it cannot show

Re: MI text on layouts

Hi All! I promptly award this week's virtual MapInfo T-shirt to Russel Mincher who came up with a splendid idea for placing large chunks of text on a layout. His idea makes it possible to re-use, but at the same time easily alter the stored information. Russell wrote Put all of the text in a

MI Grid files

Does anyone have experience of using either large grid files or tiled grid files to represent, for example, elevation data? We're trying to determine the best way to distribute DEM data for use by MapInfo Professional (without add-in's). Options we've considered are: (1) points (2) square cells

MI: Table browser column width -Reply

Paul, a tricky one this, because the click and drag functionality of the 'column width change' is not replicated by any mapbasic commands. But, I have had similar problems. To try and resolve it (fudge is perhaps a better word) I wrote a little mbx (but you could use the mapbasic window or WOR)

MI company icon location problems

I would like to display a company icon along with vector-based maps in my opening screen display in the MapInfo Professional browser. The icon is a gif image. I open the raster image and register it using three points. However, no matter what I try, I severely skew the vector images when I

follow up: exporting contour vector to .MIF

Thanks to Ole Gregor and Richard Greenwood for replying to my question. Here are the suggestions: 1. Check the line style MI may be displaying white on white (not the case in my situation) 2. Export to DXF in EASI and import using the Universal Translator. (I solved my problem similarly by

Re: MI company icon location problems

Hi Lyn I suspect the explanation lies in the fact that MapInfo registers vector layers to the raster layer not the other way around. Other than "resampling" (or maybe rotating) your raster image in some package other than MapInfo, I dont believe there is a solution to your problem. Hope this

Re: MI MB: ErrorHandler

Hi Silke, I've had problems with error handling in the past too. I found I could only get the handler to work if it was at the very beginning of a subroutine (right after the DIM statements). Hope this helps Ian Allan Silke Keuerleber wrote: Dear listers, Can anyone tell me, why the

I could not resist reproducing below a short extract of "My Bag o'Tricks" (it will be soon available again on our site but as a pdf file) where I dabble with column width control. May be someone could find new "tricks" to add to that. For ex., the width is defined by the length of the title
