Hello Christine, Use the "File > Save Copy As" command instead. This will give you a new table, that has no relationship with the full table.
If you want a file, that both opens the full table and selects the BC polygon, you will have to create a workspace like this: !Workspace !Version 600 !Charset WindowsLatin1 Open Table "Canada" As Canada Interactive Select * from Canada where ID="BC" into query1 Map from query1 You will need some field such as an ID field that allows you to select BC, so you may have to edit the text above. Save this as a text file with WOR as extension and you can now open the table and see BC on it's own. This a dynamic query, so changes made to the base table will also be reflected in the query.

I have selected the BC polygon data from a Canadawide dataset in a query. I saved the query, but it will only display when the Canada table is open to query from. Does anyone know of a way to save the query so it exists on it's own? Also I am using data from someone that we now can't get in touch with. He obviously created a theme for one of the layers, and I would like to see what he did. Is there an easy way to do this? If anyone has any hints it would be really appreciated!
