Hello all,

I want to have a table in MetaCard, so now I have a non- wrapping field with
tabs between cells and returns between rows and fixed tabstops. If I want to
know the content of cell (2,5) I have to:

set itemDel to tab
get item 5 in line 2 of field "Table"

I was wondering if there is a more enlegant way to handle tables, so that:
-the user can resize the collum width
-the user can reorder the collums
-contents of a cell are wrapped �n the cell (try it ;-)
-I can call a cell by the collum label and row number:
  answer cell Profit,March in field "Table"

Are there some externals out there? If not, an idea for 2.4?
A field can have then also the style: table.

Greetings,
  Sjoerd Op 't Land
