Is there any way to insert a table(regular rectangle text table, as in
excel) in a layout?

The regular metod is to insert into layout mapinfo table browsed as
list. But this metod ist'n good, because i can't change font size of
resulting table.

Thnx.

Ivan,
 
You can change the font of the browser - this will also be reflected in the layout window.
I think you can set the font thru the Set Window statement.
 
Otherwise I would recommend that you take a look at Crystal Report, that comes with MapInfo Professional.
That's a true report engine that let's you do a lot of stuff, that is impossible or at least very hard to do in an ordinary layout window.

Try typing the following into the MapBasic window after making a browser
your front window:

set window FrontWindow() font ("Courier New", 1, 12, 0, 16777215)
