Cells and tables

[Jo=?ISO-8859-1?B?6w==?=l Guillod]

Why not simply define the following script in the table field:

getProp cell[where]
  put item 1 of where into tRownum
  put item 2 of where into tColnum
  set the itemdel to tab
  return item tColnum of line tRownum of me
end cell

setprop cell[where] newValue
  put item 1 of where into tRownum
  put item 2 of where into tColnum
  set the itemdel to tab
  -- optionaly check here that newValue does not contain the itemdel:
  if the itemdel is in newValue
  then throw "Exception : new value should be 1 item!"
  put newValue into item tColnum of line tRownum of me
end cell


Then, you can set and get cell value with:

put the cell[3,4] of fld myTable into myCellValue

set the cell[2,2] of fld myTable to myNewValue

TIPS: you can change the "me" keyword to "the target" and put the script in
a generic library to work for any field, without having to duplicate the
script inside each script field! And it will also work for non table field.


Hope this help!
