Purpose
Returns a string containing the name of the current MapBasic application that is running. You can call this function from the MapBasic window in MapInfo Pro.
Syntax
ApplicationName$()Return Value
String expression representing the name of the MapBasic program.
Description
By calling the ApplicationName$() function from within a compiled MapBasic application, you can determine the name of the running application. If no application is running (if you call the function by typing into the MapBasic window), then ApplicationName$() returns an empty string.
To determine the path from which the current MapBasic application is executing call the ApplicationDirectory$() function.
Example
Dim sAppName As String
sAppName = ApplicationName$()
' At this point, sAppName might look like this:
'
