[postgis-users] Live access to PostGIS from MapInfo

Thank you for the suggestion; again something I did not think of (!)...
So I tried some really 'easy' little datasets; points with some INT
attributes. Still no luck, though...

It seems that MapInfo v10 is not compatible with PostGIS 1.4.0. This makes
me wondering, having the error message in mind ("Unable to translate the
Spatial Constraint."): is this spatial constraint expressed differently in
PostGIS 1.4.0 , comparing it to, say, 1.3.5? One could even think of even
very small differences like capitals in functions e.g. st_srid() versus
ST_srID() etc. etc. At least success has been reported (by some other users,
like you Richard) of working with PostGIS (1.3.5 or lower) from MapInfo...

Does any one have a clue?
