Hi

Is it possible to search values in a table?
E.g i have a word in a text attribute and would like to see if the word exist in my table.
But as far as I understand it's only possible to find specific cells?

Any ideas how to solve this?

Ive tried a timer and adding +1 after each try to a attribute who determinate the row. But its to slow and i got different result almost every time.

    We don't have a search function , BUT , i do have a workaround that can work nicely on small tables (not thousands of values)..
    Made this template :
    Photobucket
    You can download it here :

    Tanks Roy

    I tried a similar solution but I have a table with >100k values so i guess I have to wait with the game :(

    Hey Roy did you use as loop and search for every value? Because I think gamesalad can only proceed 100 in a sec, so 100k will be almost 20 mins already

    But I am looking forward for write able tables!
