map catalog bad files

When I create a map catalog of a bunch of files (many many thousands) and if one of those files has an error, it stops the map catalog creation process. This is annoying as I might start it at the end of the day so it can run through the night - only to look in the morning that it stopped shortly after I left. So my suggestion is as follows-
If I start a catalog (I'm using add directory in this case) let it attempt to add all the files and save the list that it can't load to the clipboard or a text file so I can investigate at a later time.
This would still allow the catalog to get created, and give me a list of bad files. I can then just delete the bad files or do whatever, but I would always end up with a catalog of good files.

I will update the map catalog adding of a collection of files to save the error reporting to the end. I'll get you a new build when it's ready.
Thanks,

I have updated the adding of multiple files to the map catalog to list all errors encountered at the end. I have placed a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper12.zip with the change for you to try. Simply download that file and extract the contents into your existing v12.xx installation folder to give it a try. If you are using the 64-bit v12 version there is a new build at http://www.globalmapper.com/global_mapper12_64bit.zip .
Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Thanks,
Mike
