The answer you need is
select * from My_Table where obj intersects (select obj from selection)
The operator for geographic selection [from MapBasic help] are defined as
follows
objectA Contains objectB first object contains the centroid of second
object
objectA Contains Part objectB first object contains part of second object
objectA Contains Entire objectB first object contains all of second object
objectA Within objectB first object's centroid is within the second object
objectA Partly Within objectB part of the first object is within the second
object
objectA Entirely Within objectB the first object is entirely inside the
second object
objectA Intersects objectB the two objects intersect at some point [my
defination is "touch" at some point"
