Victor, This has been an issue for many years (and I think it is on the wish list). The only way around it at the moment is a small utility (SELNMSG.MBX) that should be on the web site that tells you how many items you have selected. Let me know if you can't find it and I can e-mail you a copy. Good luck Mark Knudsen __________________________________________________________________ Veitch Lister Consulting Pty Ltd Phone: +61 3 9427 7400 Suite 14 663 Victoria Street Fax: +61 3 9427 0481 ABBOTSFORD VIC 3067 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________________________ -----Original Message----- From: Victor Reeve Sent: Tuesday, July 04, 2000 8:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MI: selecting multiple objects Hi All, A feature of MapInfo is that if even multiple items at the same location are selected they are not highlighted in the mapper (whereas an odd amount will be). Does anyone know of a quick work around, or registry setting that may cure this. Surely it is on the MapInfo v7 wish list???
