MI MB: Underscores in Table Names

[Kingsley Gum]

I am writing a program in which users specify their own output table names. This allows users to create table names with spaces. I want to use the Add Map ... Layer statement to add this table to an existing open map window - which is where the problem lies. I can't use the same variable in the Layer clause as the Open table statement because the Layer clause does not recognise spaces in table names. MI converts spaces to underscores so the open table name has essentially changed. What's the best way to deal with this so that instead of:
...Layer input one... the result would be
...Layer input_one?

Example where Input_Tables(no_of_selection(count)) = input one

Open table "d:\ciap\project data\" + Input_Tables(no_of_selection(count))


If NumWindows() = 0 then
Map from Input_Tables(no_of_selection(count))
Else
Add Map
Window FrontWindow()
Layer Input_Tables(no_of_selection(count))
End If


TIA
