Scripting help

I have a monthly updated file with 100,000+  wells in a tab delimited text file. I import these a a large point file.
Can I build a script that will change the well Point Symbol, oil/gas/etc, based on an attribute being imported for the well, oil/gas/etc, in the file?

Thanks

Hello,

You can use the EDIT_VECTOR script command to "select" a subset of your features based on an attribute value and change the feature type or point symbol.

Cheers,

Hello,

One more thing, if you are new to scripting in Global Mapper, there is an instructional video available. It is based on an earlier version of Global Mapper, but the concepts remain the same.

Cheers,
Bob
