Personally I always take a ruler to bed to: 1. measure how long I sleep. 2. To find out what a night of passion with a crowned head is like. Richmond. On 6/29/17 8:49 pm, hh via use-livecode wrote: RG wrote: The human mind can generally hold between three and seven things in conscious memory

Re: Table Fields "and all"

Re: Table Fields "and all"

The data grid was created *precicely* because of this very thing. I for one was constantly begging for a table object of some sort, imagining that it would work like an Excel Spreadsheet, but as many pointed out, there would be problems when the data put into a table object was too much for
