Hi Tony,
If you do not have too many tables open, and do not check often, try a loop
querying all open tables. This one below should work. If you want to check
'QUERYn' Tables, replace the TableInfo with Left$(....,5) = "Query"
I use a similar function to remove several tables I constantly open and
close.

For snLoop = 1 to snNumTables

Then
bBoolCheck = 1
End If
Next
End If
IsTableOpen = bBoolCheck
End Function

Subject: MI Tables
How do tell if a table is open in mapbasic?
I've tried
x = TableInfo (tablename , TAB_INFO_NROWS)
but if the table is not open, this halts the mapbasic program, so i tried
this:
onerror goto NotOpen
x = TableInfo (tablename , TAB_INFO_NROWS)
NotOpen:
BUT, it still halts the program if the table is not open. OnError doesn't
seem to be trapping all errors.
