[Manifold-l] Distance calculations

[Simon Linder]

Thanks for all of your help.  I am getting a type Mismatch error on
NewPointLatLon when I set up the following function in an ActiveColumn:

Function DStudio
DStudio = distance([Geom (I)],NewPointLatLon(-77.0770,38.9657),"mi") 
End Function

I think that it should work but it does not.  Any ideas?

I guess the more correct form would be:

SELECT
Distance( [Geom (I)],  NewPointLatLon(-120,35),'mi')
FROM [A]

[ID] still works but....
