Hi Laura,
The code you have is exactly what you want to use. I guess I don't
understand the difference between asking for coverage for a point, and
your problem with having the bounding box in the query being too small.
It seems like they would both provide the same answer.
Has the RpfLayer been added to the map? The RpfTocHandler doesn't read
the A.TOC file until it needs to display something, so it probably
wouldn't know anything until then.
