Tables are just UI controls. Any connection to a Palm OS database is done by the programmer, and it isn't an innate property of the control. Its relatively easy to setup a table of all user-drawn cells that you can use as you want.I am using prc-tools/gcc/pilrc, do all tables have to be tied to a pdb file?
For a more advanced grid control, I'd recommend the one in the Object Library for Palm OS (POL)... however, this library is written for the CodeWarrior tools; it even comes with CW for Palm OS V9 when its released next week.Is there something that is roughly like a grid control?
Something similar to the excellent application "Cryptos"? See http://home.earthlink.net/~marxalot/help.html for details... I was addicted to this for a few weeks earlier this year.I am writing a program to solve simple substitution ciphers with the ciphertext in a multiline field at the top (someday it might read a memo), and a grid along the lower half of the screen to keep up with how my A-Z characters are arranged (like A=N,B=F,C=X...Z=whatever). Or does this become a 5x6 (26 chars plus room for a "Refresh" button) array of labels and fields and I get to draw the lines? (This will be freeware when it works)
