Overview
The tables can be handled:
  • by row,
  • by column,
  • by cell.
How to?
To handle the cells of a Table control through programming, use the following syntax:
<Column Name> [ <Row Number>]
Several WLanguage properties can be used on the cells of a Table control via the following syntax:
  • <Column Name>[<Row Number>]..<Property> = <Value>
  • <Table Name>[<Row Number>, <Column Number>]..<Property> = <Value>
Remark: If the cell corresponds to a check box, there is no need to specify the number of the option in the check box.
