I'm in a position where I need to create a table with "n" rows of
information. Sounds like a good use of RowSets.
The bulk of the data for the table would come from a selection of
records. There would be some columns in the table that would contain
calculated data, though.
Given this, and my limited knowledge of rowsets, I'm thinking I'd have
to create the rowset based upon arrays, not fields, using something
like Selection to Array first. The calculated fields I'd initialize
separately.
You don't need to base it on arrays, just use a column expression for
the calculated column (see the docs for more info). That's one of the
reasons for using a RowSet.
The demo site illustrates this technique. Look at the vendors list.
Also, regarding updating of rowsets... I know I can recreate the
entire rowset, or update a column (if using arrays). Can an individual
"cell" be updated?
No, not currently.
