Let me explain my question a little more. I have about 1,000 tables in a few workspaces. I have to move the lets say 23rd layer to the very bottom (table 980) a number of times per day. I know I can click and drag the layer to the bottom but, with that many layers it takes about 1 min or so per workspace. Is there anything I can do to speed that up? thanks

Selecting the layers works just like in Windows Explorer, if you select the first layer, then hold the [Ctrl] down, then select the 5,6 and 11th layer, you can then drag them up/down the list, while those are selected, you can also make all visible/invisible by checking only one of the visibility boxes, or label boxes etc. You can also use the shift key, say if you wish to hide 21st through 28th layer, click on the 21st, hold the [Shift] key, click on the 28th one, and all in between will be selected, then drag or hide whatever.

Is there something out there that instead of just using the up/down buttons in the Layer Control, I can move a layer strait to the top/bottom? thanks Philip Lesnik Research Systems Analyst Market Research Dept.
