Random Quote Using Tables?

SolarPepperStudios

Ok, so I set up a table with 20 rows of quotes and sayings that I want an actor to randomly display. I did this a long time ago and now I forgot how I did it. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

You can make that a little easier to maintain by using tableRowCount instead of a static number (like 20)...

tableCellValue( game.MyQuotes ,tableRowCount( game.MyQuotes ),1)

This way you can add more quotes/rows to that table without having to worry about remembering to update the formula...

Not really what I was looking for, but it did help me solve an error in my formula. For anyone out there needing that formula here it is:
Display Text:
tableCellValue( game.Random.Quote ,random(1,20),1)

Replace 20 with the number of rows you have.
