Hi,

if still relevant. You can load MapInfo data into Actix map. You should export .tab as MIF in Mapinfo (Table->export). Then load the file in Actix map as background.

If Mapinfo *.tab are using some strange coordinate, first change projection by "File -> Save as.." there is option to change coordinates.


However if you are using *.grid files, the story is completely different. You will have to save file as picture with coordinates and then load into map

My reputation does not allow downloading files, therefore I cannot see attached screenshots :(

There is no way u can see the builtin grid on map (gridlines), However u can import tabs for it !

I'm using MapInfo 9, there is a tool named "Grid Maker", you may chose the grid corners coordinates, and also spacing between lines.
