Hi List,

I've got a very basic query, and any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have a group of tab files loaded in MapInfo. Each of the tables has
exactly the same structure. I need to select a few objects from each of the
tables, all with the same value e.g. Field = "LA" 
The result I need is a single table with all of the objects, and an
attribute from the name of the table that the object comes from.

>From what I remember MapInfo cannot select from more than one table at one
time, (Is this correct?). In which case is there a way to join up all the
tables into a master table, but creating a field that has the name of the
originating table?

Many Thanks in Advance!

Thomas
