Example

// Swap the current row and row 5
TABLE_Table1.MoveLine(SelectedLine, 5, amSwap)
// Move the current row to row 3
TABLE_Table1.MoveLine(SelectedLine, 3, amMove)
// Swap the current row with the next row
TABLE_Table1.MoveLine(SelectedLine, 5, amNext, amSwap)

Syntax

Moving to a specific position Hide the details

<Result> = <Table control>.MoveLine(<Index of row to move> , <Destination row index> [, <Operation to perform>])

<Result>: Integer

New index of the row that was moved.

<Table control>: Control name

Name of the Table control to be used.

<Index of row to move>: Integer

Position of the row to move. This position must be between 1 and the number of rows in the Table control (returned by <Table>.Count or Count, for example).
To move the row that is currently selected, use the rowSelected constant.

<Destination row index>: Integer

New row position. This position must be between 1 and the number of rows in the Table control (returned by <Table>.Count or Count, for example). A fatal error occurs if this parameter is not valid.
To handle the row that is currently selected, use the rowSelected constant.

<Operation to perform>: Optional Integer constant (or combination of constants)

Change of position that will be performed for the row:
amDisplayDestination The modified row is displayed in the Table control. An automatic scroll of the rows is performed if necessary to display the modified row in the Table control. The selected row (selection bar) is not modified.
This constant can be combined with the amMove and amSwap constants.
Table in Ajax mode: The modified row will always be displayed at the top of Table control.
amMove
(default value) The row is moved to the index of the destination row.
amSwap The source row and the destination row are swapped.

Moving relatively to the current position Hide the details

<Result> = <Table control>.MoveLine(<Index of row to move> , <Relative move> [, <Operation to perform>])

<Result>: Integer

New index of the row that was moved.

<Table control>: Control name

Name of the Table control to be used.

<Index of row to move>: Integer

Position of the row to move. This position must be between 1 and the number of rows in the Table control (returned by <Table>.Count or Count, for example).
To handle the row that is currently selected, use the rowSelected constant.

<Relative move>: Integer constant

Used to move or a swap to a position relative to the index of the row to move.
amFirst Moves the row to first position.
amLast Moves the row to last position.
amNext Moves the row one position downwards.
amNextPage Moves the row one page to the bottom (a page corresponds to the number of rows that can be simultaneously displayed in the Table control).
amPrevious Moves the row one position upwards
amPreviousPage Moves the row one page to the top (a page corresponds to the number of rows that can be simultaneously displayed in the Table control).

If this parameter is invalid (amPrevious constant used on the first row of the Table control for example), the row is moved "to the nearest" position.

<Operation to perform>: Optional Integer constant (or combination of constants)

Change of position that will be performed for the row:
amDisplayDestination The modified row is displayed in the Table control. An automatic scroll of the rows is performed if necessary to display the modified row in the Table control. The selected row (selection bar) is not modified.
This constant can be combined with the amMove and amSwap constants.
Table in Ajax mode: The modified row will always be displayed at the top of Table control.
amMove
(default value) The row is moved to the index of the destination row.
amSwap The source row and the destination row are swapped.

Remarks

Use conditions

<Table>.MoveLine can be used on:

a Table control populated programmatically.
a Table control with in-memory data source.
a horizontal Table control.
an Ajax Table control or a standard Table control.
a Table control in browser mode.

This function cannot be used on the TreeView Table controls and on the Table controls based on a data file (direct access).

Remarks: Moving a row according to the type of control:

Versions 18 and later
To move a row in a TreeView Table control, use <TreeView Table>.MoveBranch.
New in version 18
To move a row in a TreeView Table control, use <TreeView Table>.MoveBranch.
To move a row in a TreeView Table control, use <TreeView Table>.MoveBranch.
To move a row in a List Box or Combo Box control, use <List Box>.MoveLine.
To move a row in a Looper control, use LooperMoveLine.

Multi-selection Table control

If <Table>.MoveLine is used on a multi-selection Table control:

when moving a row (amMove constant): only the first selected row will be moved.
when swapping rows (amSwap constant): only the first row will be swapped
the rowSelected constant cannot be used. Otherwise, a fatal error occurs and no row is moved.

Horizontal Table control

If <Table>.MoveLine is called on a horizontal Table control, the elements moved will be the columns.

To move the rows in a horizontal Table control, use <Table>.MoveColumn.

Managing errors

Caution: <Table>.MoveLine returns no error code. To determine if this function has generated an error, use ErrorInfo with the errMessage constant.

ErrorInfo is not available.
