MapInfo Pro

Can someone tell me the requirements for Bing to work in older versions of MapInfo? I know the Bing patch must be applied annually to renew its license, however, if a user has version 12 purchased many years ago, will applying the patch today reactivate Bing for 2022?

Thank you!

Hi Nick

I'd think so yes. Applying the Bing Patch should work on any version of MapInfo Pro that supports Bing.
From the latest update I found this:
"In order to take advantage of this update, you must be running MapInfo Pro 10.5.3, 11.0x, 11.5x, 12.0x, 12.5x, 15.x, 16.0.x, 17.x, or 19.x."

License-wise, you need a maintenance agreement to get access to the latest Bing Patch.

I hope this helps
