More about tables and window structure (OpenInsight 32-Bit)

In OIWin_Comm_Init, JoinMap@ is the name of the Window's primary table. KeyMap@ contains info regarding the key control.
I haven't experimented yet, but I think JoinMap@ might have info about which control should trigger a read (just a guess right now–if anyone knows, please say).
If you change JoinMap@ in a Create event, the form will read from the new table. But, if you do table=Get_Property(@WINDOW:.'controlname',"TABLE") it still returns the old table name. That means that each control is still associated with the original table. I don't know if this is bad or not, but it can't be good. I can't figure out for the life of me where the table information for each control is buried. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks,

Bob,
I expect Andrew or Aaron to give me the information, because I'm a nice guy and it reminds everyone how much they know.

IIRC it should be in ControlSemantics@. Take at look at the OIWIN_EQUATES record and you'll see lots of useful stuff regarding window structures in there.

Is this related to wanting to just change the table? It sounds like all you want is an OI version of the ARev WINDOW MYWIN DATAFILE=SOMEFILE DICT=SOMEOTHERDICTFILE command.
