The following bit of code is something I use in MapBasic to get a list
of open tables (includes queries...) that I present as a choice list.
Perhaps it will inspire a way to find your layers. You'd need to know
the names of the two states tables; by default they would be STATES and
STATES_2 but you might have altered that.
TableCount = NumTables() ' NumTables is built in
function that returns # of open tables
redim TableNames(TableCount+1)
Semi = ""
For LoopCount = 1 to TableCount
TableList = TableList + Semi + TableInfo(LoopCount,
TAB_INFO_NAME)
TableNames(LoopCount+1) = TableInfo(LoopCount, TAB_INFO_NAME)
Semi = ";"
Next
TableNames(1) = "Selection"
TableList = "Selection;" + TableList

Subject: MI-L Getting Map Layer Names
My map has two layers from the STATES table. In a Set Map command, I
refer
to them by layer number. As I add or remove layers, I need to keep
tract of
the layer numbers. Is there a way to refer to each STATES layer by
name?
"STATES(1)" and "STATES(2)" give "invalid view layer".
Thanks
Mike
