Good morning, good day, and to some good night. I have written a little program that lets a user select common Mapinfo tables from multiple folders via checkboxes. It opens all the tables into one map. Then however once you have one map open, with multiple tables, and you use the program again, it re-opens another map window. I would like the newly opened tables to add to the same map. I have made one of the tables open as a base table that always opens regardless. I did this because i needed a window statement "Map from table". The other tables use "Add Map Auto Layer table". My questions are: 1) Can you add in the "Open Table" option where you can select the "Preferred Views". (I have looked with no success through the MapBasic online help for this option) 2) If i cant do question 1) can i use an "If basetable = open then dont open" kind of statement. And then "Else Open Map From Table" 3) Should i start by opening the tables, dont map them, and then use a "If table open then dont map else add map" kind of statement. Any help would be very valuable Thanks Ethan ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
