.aid file extension

.aid
File generated by MapInfo's MapXtreme component, MapX component or MapBasic when it opens an Access (.mdb) database table.

A .aid file is a binary file and the format of this file is proprietary to MapInfo. The role of the file is to provide mappings from objects to data. The file contains mappings into the corresponding .mdb file.

For more information see:
