Hi Folks, So, as you may have guessed, Josh and I stopped spamming the listserv a couple weeks ago, not because we suddenly got bored with the idea of ...
Dear friends, I have maybe 100,000 addresses that need a decent cleanup and we have a lot of inconsistent address situations: There is a ZIP but the state is...
If you have the ZIP you shouldn't have to worry about the State. It looks like you need to use the Address2 field as your address field (apartment number or...
Given the large number of addresses you have to clean, I'd suggest use of an outside service which could do the whole 100,000 name batch for (I believe) a...
Hi all, I really hope someone has come across this problem that I have. It seems that when you print a layout to PDF, Maptitude sends the layout name as the...
Hi Quinton, We also ran across the same problem in writing Layers2PDF (http://www.directionsmag.com/files/index.php/view/750). After talking to Caliper, we...
Quinton, This is an issue that Josh and I bumped up against while developing Layers2PDF. The key concept to understand is the difference between an object's...
Hi - read back in the archives and found some add-ins to export layers to google earth. So far I've only experimented with the point converter, Point2GE....
Hi Group: In Maptitude 5.0, when you save a map to KML/KMZ, Maptitude exports point, line, and area layers and also tries to apply as much styling and labeling...
Mike, I've used Point2GE and Area2GE with Maptitude 4.5 since the add-ins were released in 2006. I cannot thank Marcelo Luna enough for producing these...
Thanks for the info. I contacted Marcelo and he was very helpful. He says that problem that I was having was due to the character "&" in some of the character...
Hi Josh and Moshe, Thanks for the replies. I actually forgot to look if I had any replies to my post but, that's exactly what I did. I used PDFCreator's...
Hello, due to the release of TransCAD/Maptitude 5 with the feature to export maps to Google Earth, some interest im my old add-ins was renewed. I did some...
O.K., I know running version 4.5 labels me as an old foggie, but I've spent years becoming this and actually enjoy it. However, technology may be forcing me...
Hi Pat, I do not believe 4.5 is Vista compliant. 5.0 achieves this status. Also, if you do some research/shopping, you can still get a new laptop with windows...
Bob, Appreciate your response. It looks like the question becomes spending $500 for Maptitude 5.0 or adding another $500 to my laptop budget. Given the 4.5...
You are more then likely to have more problems then it is worth. MapInfo 9.0 is Vista Compliant. It is as good as anytime to update your version of MapInfo. ...
The XP versions are out there, but what I found out is you either get XP on a refurbished machine, or you pay a lot more to get a new laptop with XP. Or if...
Hi Group: Maptitude 5.0 is Vista compatible. We would recommend upgrading to 5.0, as 4.5 is getting a bit out-dated. Upgrade pricing is available at:...
A hopefully quick and obvious question: What is the GDSK equivalent of "Fill" for a database? I have joined two databases and want to write the value from a...
Does anyone know of a way to create separate bands up to a certain radius, but without overlapping? I have a parcel map, but it does not include features where...
Yes! Thank you! Note to Caliper: it would be great to have some kind of guide that matched up Maptitude menu commands with the corresponding GDSK command. In...
The documentation on Desire Lines is for this brain a little thin in Maptitude 5 The ID it refers to has to be the Maptitude assigned ID in a layer? Or can it...
Hi Group: I pulled this from the Maptitude Help: "In order to create the new line geographic file, Maptitude associates each From ID and To ID in the dataview...
Colleagues, I am trying to import parcel boundaries from San Diego County's online library of Shape files found at: http://files.sangis.org/help.aspx...
