Okay, I must be dense here. I am looking for a list of the types of files that MAP can open.
I searched in the MAP help file using 'File Types', 'File Types Supported', 'Open', the query thing 'What types of files can I open'?

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.

thanks for the quick reply! I really appreciate it.

You'd think it wouldn't be so hard to find out. I think my word searches were pretty good? :?

ah, well :beer:

I just got this list going to the MAPIMPORT command and looked at the file type drop down.

ooookay. Gotcha! ;-) Did I mention I'm new to MAP?

I knew from some press release or something that it could, but, honestly, I'm still using MAP just like ACAD. :oops:

I'll learn more, I promise!
