Table Fun

[Sarah]

Hi Chris,

Good stack, I can see I'm going to find it useful. I made a slight 
tweak that makes your table field respond to mouse clicks by displaying 
all the cRevTable properties.
In the table field's script, I put this handler:
on mouseDown
   send "showCustomSetValues" to this card in 20 milliseconds
end mouseDown

I don't know what messages you were having trouble with, but this one 
works fine for me.

BTW, you don't need to use MetaCard to look at these properties in Rev. 
If you turn on "Revolution UI Elements in Lists" in the "View" menu, 
you will be able to choose cRevTable (or any other internal property 
sets) as the visible property set in the Inspector.

Cheers,
Sarah
