Hi,
I'm writing to a MapInfo extended tab, and noticed there is a delete operation on the tables. I have tested this out, and have got it to work, however the tables aren't compressing after and the deleted records are staying in the table albeit flagged for deletion. A pack of the table solves this, but cant it happen on closure of the writer?
Cheers,
James
@jamesleversha The MapInfo Extended TAB writer doesn't have a compress option. Could you please post this as a New Idea so other users can vote for this functionality.
Hi @jamesleversha, thank you for asking this question. Our MapInfo Extended Writer does not currently have the option to pack. I have since filed a report in our tracking system to enable such functionality.
Is there a specific pack option that you are looking for?
