Actually I needed to go one step further
the trick is in opening the original map windows off-
screen
then combining them after they are open
pay attention to the position coordinates in the
test2.wor and test3.wor (5000,5000)
The main workspace that references the other workspaces:
!Workspace!Version 400!Charset WindowsLatin1Set Window
Run Application "C:\My Documents\test2.WOR"
Run Application "C:\My Documents\test3.WOR"
map from AK_Water,AL_cities
The first sub workspace test2.wor:
!Workspace
!Version 400
!Charset WindowsLatin1
Open Table "\\File server\mapinfo data\US
cities\AL_cities" As AL_cities
Map From AL_cities
Position (5000,5000) Units "in"

The second sub workspace test3.wor:
!Workspace

!Charset WindowsLatin1
Open Table "Untitled" As Untitled Interactive
Open Table "\\FILE SERVER\MapInfo Data\Water\AK_Water"
