It's also possible to take over selection highlighting from the 
operating system: capture TblEnterEvents and perform the 
highlighting yourself.  Thus, you can give up either system 
cell-draw functionality or system cell-highlight functionality, 
whichever would be more difficult for you to do with your own code.

Editorial comment:  This particular table feature (full-row 
selection) appears to be a fairly common request, and might merit 
an addition to Palm OS table support for it.  Or maybe not.  But 
after a lot of experience with them, I have to say that the Palm 
OS table control (with a few exceptions) is quite well conceived: 
it provides a wide variety of functionality for many different 
purposes, and enables the programmer to step in with custom code 
at virtually every point he might want to.
