How do you, while entering data in an edit table, get a new empty line? Here are the alternatives that I know about:

- Pressing Ins inserts a new line before the current line.

- Pressing Tab or Enter in the last cell of the last line inserts a new line after the last line, provided the first cell of the last line is filled in.

- Pressing DownArrow in the first cell of the last line also inserts a new line after the last line, again provided that first cell is filled in.

Now I wonder if there's an easy way around that "first cell filled in" condition, e.g, some keystroke I didn't know about. I have this edit table where the first cell should not always be filled in.

Correction:

That third line of alternatives should read:

- Pressing DownArrow in any cell of the last line also inserts a new line after the last line, again provided the first cell of that last line is filled in.

Oystein,

I'm not aware of any standard settings in OI, but could you not set your own up via the Char event and just add an fm to the List property of the edit table ??

Simon,

Sure I can. I'm a programmer, am I not? I just ran out of steam for a moment. :-)

I asked in case there was some secret keystroke I didn't know about. I don't think the keystroke for leaving an edit table without having to use the mouse is docced. I don't think the keystroke for entering a tab in an edit box is docced. There could be more non-docced keystrokes.

I often use a little bit of code (for what its worth), which confuses my programmers totally, but it works.

Assume variable TABLE is for the ARRAY property, and the default display is 10 rows deep.

IF TABLE=" THEN TABLE="

This pads out the table to fit the display, and is non-destructive.

If there is something on line 10 it leaves it alone, otherwise it pads out.

Sprezz,

I think it's you that are confused. What if Table was 0?
