As a small mapbasic application, it could look like this: dim s as string dim i as integer dim N as integer s = "alter table xxx (drop " N = tableinfo(xxx,TAB_INFO_NCOLS) for i = 163 to N s = s+columninfo(xxx,"COL"+str$(i),COL_INFO_NAME) if i=N then s = s+")" else s = s+"," end if next ...

RE: MapInfo Monday: Working with M & Z Values on Objects in MapInfo Pro v2023

Found In Egroup: MapInfo Pro \ view thread
A couple of questions: 1) Does MIF now support M/Z values? 2) If the old TAB format has supported it for many years, how do you create such a table from scratch, pre-2023? I remember to have seen it mentioned in the MFAL library, but never looked into it. It has a type called CSYS_MZ_INFO. EFAL seems ...

RE: Error Saving Table in MapInfo Pro 2021 vs. 2019?

Yes, most likely. It can be either GDAL or EFAL which doesn't like it. A field called "Table", "Date" and similar could also give problems depending upon the software accessing the table. ------------------------------ Uffe Kousgaard ROUTEWARE Roskilde ------------------------------

You need a dummy field for joining, it can be just 0's in both tables. select ranges.MinValue, ranges.MaxValue, Count(*) from ranges, InputValues where ranges.dummy=InputValues.dummy and ranges.MinValue =InputValues.Value group by ranges.MinValue order by ranges.MinValue ---------- ...

Then it may be Spatial tab > Regions > Voronoi you are after. The final output will follow the line between red/green and red/blue closely, but the outer perimeter is going to a rectangle. You could clip the 3 voronoi polygons by a single alpha shape, based upon all points. ------------------------------ ...

RE: MapInfo Monday: Calculating Center of Locations

Found In Egroup: MapInfo Pro \ view thread
All this is basically a center of mass calculation, which is done exactly as an average of coordinates, weighted by mass or number of employees as in this example. Using a grid is just a very complicated way of doing the same thing. The only advantage is with lat/long coordinates closer to the poles, ...

Hi, There is no official way to undelete records. If you are really in troubles and need to get a record back, there are actually three places that need to be edited: 1) In the DAT file there is this flag, which Peter mentions. DAT is in many ways the same as DBF, so you can see the format here: h ...

The issue is as a developer we should never rely on current directory, because it is a global thing in Windows and it may be changed by any other process at any point. But nevertheless we do it all the time, hoping it goes OK. Which it usually does. But here are two functions, which you can use, so ...

What is the build number of this "recent update" ? Can you include one line from this CSV file? In my mind a CSV should use commas as delimiters, no thousand separators and . as decimal comma. Always. Just like MID files. ------------------------------ Uffe Kousgaard ROUTEWARE ...

Start by creating a new folder, since you can't compile within the program files folder. So, I have d:\xx\animator, d:\xx\inc and d:\xx\lib, which keep copies of the similar folders from samples. Now open mapbasic and compile lib\Resstrng.mb and animator\animator.mb. Finally open the project ...

RE: Multi Append Tool?

Found In Egroup: MapInfo Pro \ view thread
Somehow I read it as it was multiple MIF files you wanted to append. But if it is TAB files, it is even easier. It is the kind of stuff, where it is faster to write the code, than looking for someone else, who has already done it. And then it doesn't do exactly what you need. ------------------------------ ...
