Not really what Simon is getting at. I guess not many people on here are MapInfo users as well. MapInfo's SQL allows you to query any datasource using SQL, so you could do Select * From table1,Table2 where table1.comecolumn > 10.<div>
<br></div><div>Where table2 is a shape file and table1 is a tab file.</div><div><br></div><div>@Simon Yes I think you "could" do it via a plugin although I'm not sure how it would go on speed. And stuff like this should really be built into the program. I'll investigate the plugin route if only as a prototype.</div>
