Re: [api-dev] Sequence of Texttables
In addition to what Andrew provided here, there is yet another way, which is probably not that good but can be taken into account: Using the viewcursor you can go from the beginning to the end of the document regularly checking if the property TextTable of the viewcursor is void (IsEmpty(cur.TextTable)) . Nevertheless the enumeration way is the more reliable one. Do note, that right now in the 680 line (2.0 beta) thisComponent is broken, so use Stardesktop.getCurrentComponent() instead and make sure you run the macro from the menu and not from the Basic IDE.2005/6/15, Andrew Douglas Pitonyak [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Martin Thoma wrote:Hello!

Will this ALWAYS be the case? Hi, you cannot rely on the order of tables. I'd suggest to sort the names you get from getTextTables/getElementNames to find the new table name quickly. If you copy/paste the table only (without surrounding text) you can query at the view cursor for the TextTable property and then ask this for it's name because this cursor will be located within the new table. Regards, Oliver Hallo, Had the same problem with inserting frames and i renamed the frames on the spot like: oFrame.Name = P + iPagenr + _Kad_ + iHCpos +_ + iVCpos + _ + (tot + 1) ' (is unique) and thats gives me names depending on the position in the document Fernand - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
