Showing Table values

Hi GS People,

Is there any other way of outputting the values of a table other than specifying the exact row and column?

I want to record values in a table in 3 or more columns then output all the values in the table onto the screen. Be awesome if I could filter the table output by selecting the value in one of the columns.

Love to hear from you.

    Hey Tendrmer,

    Thanks for the reply.

    No I mean if I have a table.
    Person Name Hair colour
    Fred Black
    Mary Blond
    Joe Red
    Nancy Brown

    I can display all the able without having to display each actor with a table cell. This is VERY limiting. I want to show all entries in the table

    Field Person Name ,1,1 Field colour 1,2
    Field Person Name ,2,1 Field colour 2,2
    Field Person Name ,3,1 Field colour 3,2

    Ah well try this. I have never trie it with tables but I would imagine the display text stuff will work the same with table cells. This is a demo I made a while back that shows how to do multiple lines of text in a single display text attribute.

    Cheers

    Hey Tenrdrmer,

    Thanks for the example and great tip. I can definitely use that in other areas.

    What I'm more after is something like a display table function or a way to create it.
    i.e. display table haircolour columns, 1,2

    This would then dump all the table contents on a page rather than me specifying each table cell.

    Does that make sense?
