Deja vu for me. An Office 365 update has just been applied to my office desktop. I cant see its details via the option in office, installed by sysadmins. Soon as applied I open MIPro 2021.1 and try and open an ms access database and crash, same as the issue I had with v19. It is the 64 bit version ...

I want to add another and refreshed my memory with a Mapinfo Monday article from last year on the process using WMTS. Trying to add Vector Tile API to Mapinfo via WMTS .

Sooo, I waited (I had a pc issue anyway with corrupt registry). v2021 came out. My work desktop (Win 10 v1909) was wiped and rebuilt using a stock image a month ago, which installs the 32bit version of O365 by default. An engineer uninstalled that and then installed the 64 bit version 'Microsoft 365 ...

Thanks, that's helpful. I have to get a lot of content off my personal network drive as we implement 365. I can create my own SharePoint site anyway. ------------------------------ Martin Dowler CHESHIRE & WIRRAL PARTNERSHIP NHS TRUST ------------------------------

RE: Mapinfo Pro 19.3 crash behaviour

Yes. The fact that it happily creates tabs from my data and displays OS API data and that since I got this machine Ive never opened one of my older workspaces to call on one of the older OS tab files leads me to think that its a Windows corruption, perhaps the registry. I may get the pc reformatted with ...

OS 50k/250k - 2014/2015 OS Vectormap - 2019 Will probably not install r45 hold off until v2021 as my machine has Office 16 on it and policies for Office 365 are causing issues. ------------------------------ Martin Dowler CHESHIRE & WIRRAL PARTNERSHIP NHS TRUST --------------------------- ...

Hi I had 19.3 (r41) installed on my work desktop last summer. I've been using the new OS (Ordnance Survey) API background data on my projects and haven't had issues. I've not tried to load some other older OS data until today. When I tried to load in some OS tabs with georeferenced image tif tiles ...

Hi All I've just started generating some heatmaps for the first time in MIPro 19.3. Last time I built some (2018) I was still using the old (now defunct) Pitney Bowes Crime Analyser (great tool).  What I want to achieve is just the concentrated area of activity marked red to yellow but without ...

Did the upgrade, went fine.  Same problem. Thinking its MS Office. Ive tried to connect to an .mdb and .accdb. I know it worked when installed. Windows 10 is up to date and all 2016 updates are installed. Think I will uninstall the 2016 Access engine and see if that does it, then I may have ...

I downloaded it. Will it uninstall the current version and carry over the licence etc or do I need to transfer licence and uninstall it first? I did start its installation last night but cancelled as it didn't seem to detect the current program. ------------------------------ Martin Dowler CHESHIRE ...
