PS - Here are two word problems to view this type of algorithm in a
bigger context beyond just software UI. Not too scary or difficult; our
ancestors could solve similar problems, and so can kids in school.

On the contrary, as I've mentioned and as you know, "SEVERAL people
immediately provided sample code." You were using sarcasm at the time to

This winds me up a treat! Your point number 6:

is totally unreasonable if you are claiming there IS a one line use case but
ONLY if we buy into some spreadsheet library.
We don't need to confuse people - it DOES cause damage, because readers
often trust confident/prolific statements without realizing which ones
are flawed, and they act upon bad information. It often falls to
consultants and trainers like myself to help individuals fix the
resulting problems

Sean,
The idea for the script I posted was to be independent of the Livecode provided
tableField.
My use case was that tab-delimited data was provided in a _regular_ field and
the user clicks on a cell and the developer wants to know which cell was
clicked to take action upon that
I made two mistakes there. First:
Put cRevTable[“currentxcell”],cRevTable[“currentycell”] into tCellIndex
Should be:
Put the cRevTable[“currentxcell”] of me , the cRevTable[“currentycell”] of me
into tCellIndex
And:
select nothing
Should be:
select empty
Oops

Thanks Bernd.
This only works if there is already data in the field. If you put empty into
the field it produces no results. In those instances you are forced to get an
x,y clickLoc and use the tabstops and textHeight to hard code the result.
