MapInfo EasyLoader installs with MapInfo Pro as a tool, but you can run it separately from MapInfo Pro. It lets you create a data source connection and create a map catalog in the database.
To create a Map Catalog table using MapInfo EasyLoader, you must first load the MapInfo EasyLoader tool into MapInfo Pro:
- On the HOME tab, in the Tools group, click Tool Extensions.
- In the Tools Manager, on the Registered tab, locate MapInfo EasyLoader in the list, and then click Load Tool
.
To have the tool load automatically every time you start MapInfo Pro, select the Autoload check box next to the tool.
If you do not see MapInfo EasyLoader on the Registered tab, see Working with MapInfo Pro Tools in the MapInfo Pro Help System.
If you do not see MapInfo EasyLoader on the Register tab, see Working with MapInfo Pro Tools.
- Click OK.
Run MapInfo EasyLoader from the Tools Manager, by double clicking on it on the Running tab (on the HOME tab, in the Tools group, click Tool Extensions). Proceed to the following section that applies to you.
For a summary of the MapInfo EasyLoader window and options, see MapInfo EasyLoader. For information about how to use MapInfo EasyLoader, refer to the MapInfo EasyLoader Help.
If the Map Catalog is present and there are no entries in it, the Catalog check box beside the table name in MapInfo EasyLoader does not enable.
