>I have never used MapInfo, but when I looked at the MapBasic documentation mentioned on the website, it said that OLE Automation was supported, as well as DDE. I didn't go digging any deeper, but documentation for its object model has to be somewhere. Whether MapInfo actually works as an OLE server FROM VFP might be another matter.
What I saw at the website seemed more like an advertisement than anything. Did I miss something better?
I wrote to info. They said I could run the program as "mapinfow.exe MBprog.mbx". Like a parameter. I'm hoping this works. If not, I'll have to resort to DDE.
From what I know of MapInfo, I think the OLE is that you can imbed a map into another thing.
Well, we'll see if I have to dance or not when I try running the MapBasic program as a parameter.
If not, I'll be back for dance lessons. :)
Thanks,
