Multi Append Tool?

Posted By Ryan Richter 01-23-2023 12:56
Found In Egroup: MapInfo Pro \ view thread
Is there an updated MBX for appending multiple files?  I have the multipend.mbx file but after registering it in MapInfo (v2021.1 build 25) it will not work. A coworker of mine showed me how to do it in QGIS as this function comes standard.  Why is the ability not included standard in MapInfo these ...

Is there an updated version of a Multi-Append tool mbx out there somewhere?  I have an old multiappend.mbx file that I registered but cannot get to open or work with the latest version of MapInfo, and I did not see any mbx tool like this in the MapInfo Marketplace.   A colleague of mine showed me ...

Thanks Peter as always. When the data come from Oracle into MapInfo, the column is now a float, which I think explains the scientific notation.  I will forward this info onto our smallworld tech who handles the export, I am sure I will have more questions afterwards.  Thanks so much!

Thanks so much, my coworker said that saving the state file worked, and he'll use that if he makes changes to his menu. Appreciate the help! ------------------------------ Ryan Richter COX COMMUNICATIONS Roanoke GA ------------------------------

Hi there, I have a co-worker who finally got his upgrade to MapInfo 2021, and I have worked with him to get his favorite buttons and commands added to the quick access toolbar, however when he exits Mapinfo and returns, they are always all gone, and he has to add them again each time.  We have checked ...

Yes, this exact same thing was happening to us as well.  It was a constant battle of closing and opening map and browser windows.  I noticed sometimes if I close a browser, and then open it again, it will say browser 2, or then browser 3,4 etc.  I've seen up to 9!   If you go in your explorer window, ...

Hi Peter, Yes I am not having any issues anymore at the moment (knock on wood)  I unloaded them all, so ya I do not know if it is related to a specific tool.  It was a very odd occurrence to suddenly just have not just tools, but even zoom and pan functions grayed out, which of course makes no difference ...

Hi Bob, Thank you for this information, I'll admit I was skeptical that this would work, but low and behold it did.  I am now letting my other co-workers know that they can do this when they have similar issues.  I am still hopeful that this will be addressed in any updates or patches that may get released.   ...

Hi, yes I am running build 197.  This weird behavior is getting worse for myself and my coworkers.   Some people noted above that in my images that the map was not the active window, the browser was, so in these examples I do not have a browser open, but what you will also notice, is that even though ...

Hi John, In the image this is true, but it did not matter, and that also would not explain why the zoom and pan, ruler etc are grayed out when you right click on the active map, because that has to be the active map window when you are in there and then right clicking to get those shortcuts, and those ...

Is anyone else having issues with the new 2021 version in regards to everyday functions and buttons being grayed out?  This happens to myself and several co-workers quite often now, and we are all stumped as to the cause, and how to fix it.  We have just started our company upgrade of about 100 licenses ...
