DataRangeType property

  • Article

Returns the range type of the mapped data. Read-only GeoDataRangeType.

GeoDataRangeType Value Description
geoRangeTypeContinuous
1
Continuous range of data (used by all map types except Multiple Symbol and Unsized Pie Chart maps)
geoRangeTypeContinuousLog
2
Continuous logarithmic range of data (used by all map types except Multiple Symbol and Unsized Pie Chart maps)
geoRangeTypeDefault
–1
Not valid for the DataRangeType property
geoRangeTypeDiscreteEqualRanges
3
Discrete equal ranges of data (used by Shaded Area, Shaded Circle, Sized Circle, Multiple Symbol, and Sized Pie Chart maps)
geoRangeTypeDiscreteLogRanges
5
Discrete logarithmic ranges of data (used by Shaded Area, Shaded Circle, Sized Circle Maps, Multiple Symbol, and Sized Pie Chart maps)
geoRangeTypeEqualDataPoints
4
Equal data points (used by Shaded Area, Shaded Circle, Sized Circle, Multiple Symbol, and Sized Pie Chart maps)
geoRangeTypeNone
7
Data is not mapped as a range (used for Unsized Pie Chart maps)
geoRangeTypeUniqueValues
6
Data that contains text strings, categories, or classes of data (used by Shaded Area, Shaded Circle, Sized Circle, and Multiple Symbol maps)

Example

    Sub GetInfoAboutDataMap()
    Dim objApp As New mappoint.Application
    Dim objDataMap As mappoint.DataMap
    Dim objDataSet As mappoint.DataSet
    Dim lngSymbolID As Long


    'Set up application and objects to use
    objApp.Visible = True
    objApp.UserControl = True


    'Let user create a data map
    Set objDataMap = objApp.ActiveMap.DataSets.ShowDataMappingWizard()


    'Get information about the data map
    Select Case objDataMap.DataRanges.DataRangeType
      Case geoRangeTypeDiscreteEqualRanges
        MsgBox "The data range type is discrete equal ranges."
      Case geoRangeTypeContinuous
        MsgBox "The data range type is continuous."
      Case geoRangeTypeEqualDataPoints
        MsgBox "The data range type is equal data points."
      Case geoRangeTypeContinuousLog
        MsgBox "The data range type is continuous logarithmic."
      Case geoRangeTypeDiscreteLogRanges
        MsgBox "The data range type is discrete logarithmic ranges."
      Case geoRangeTypeUniqueValues
        MsgBox "The data range type is unique values."
      Case geoRangeTypeNone
        MsgBox "The data has no range type; must be an Unsized Pie Chart map."
    End Select
