Hello Carol, Hassan (and others with the same problem)...
I think I may have another solution for you:
If I understand the problem correctly, you
- have a map with open tables, but you might not know which or how many
- want to close all open tables
- keep the map window open because you need the window ID
A workaround might be:
Open a mappable table (could be just a dummy table that you supply) with the
keyword hide. This will prevent it from showing up i.e. in the "close table"
dialog. Add the table to the Map window
Use the NUMTABLES() function to retreive no. of open tables (your hidden
table will NOT be counted)
You can then perform a loop (for the no. of open tables) where you
1) use TableInfo(1, TAB_INFO_NAME) to retreive the name of the first open
table
2) close that table
This should close all your originally open tables, but leave your hidden
table (and thus the map) open. Note that under 1) your hidden table will not
show up.
After you then have opened one or several other table(s) you have your
original map window, but with new tables. You will have to close your hidden
table manually.
I haven't done any extensive testing, but this MIGHT work...
