    IntersectNodes() does not work, it does not accept a point object as an input

     

    A Select statement would work, if one of the objects was part of a record in a table. But they are both variables. I want to avoid the rigmarole of creating tables just to place the object variable into.

    You should use " Within " function in the Query table. Its just simple as that.
