Yes, developed and maintained in house. I can't really take any credit, though, as it's mainly my manager's work. We have a set of menus to make it easier to access maps and data, and a set that do "spatial" and computational things. For a user who may use MapInfo only once a week, or less, as just one ...

Hallo, Tom, yes, we do something like Peter suggests, whereby we have some dropdown menus created in MapBasic that directly open Workspaces, Tables, or directories from which the user can open a chosen table. The user does not need to know any directory information as the program takes care of that. ...

Peter,  thank you for that.  We'll give it a go.  I was hoping we could just use the map "name" that appears in the top bar, but this way will still get us where we want to be. Thanks. Alan. ------------------------------ A Oliver West Midland Police BIRMINGHAM ---------------------------- ...

Nick,  thank you for your reply.  Unfortunately, the scroll bars only take me so far, and that's not very far at all. I don't know if you can see from the image, but that is as far zoomed out as I can go, and as far south as I can scroll, so I cannot get to any areas that have any buildings (the ...

Hallo, I am on MapInfo 15.0.3 (32 bit). I want to Style Overide my raster map, and make a colour transparent.  But in my Adjust Image Styles dialogue box I have a little bit of the far reaches of some Scottish islands, which, I guess, are uninhabited, as there's no buildings on them, and the building ...

Peter, thanks for that link, and I realise it's a while ago, but it's now disappeared.  I am still using MapInfo Pro 15.0, so would be interested in older solutions to non-display of zero values.  Is the information that was in that link available somewhere else? Thanks. Alan. ---------- ...
