Thanks Bill, that works nicely.
I don't know now what "viewablecolumns" is supposed to track since
the number of columns in view at any given moment is different from
it and the total number of columns is different from it.
And what's the difference between "currentview" and "formattedview"?
Best,

If you're trying to determine how many columns the actual data has, as
opposed to how many columns are visible, the following would work
(though I
don't know if it is the fastest or most clever method):
put 0 into maxTabs; set the itemdelimiter to tab
repeat for each line x in fld "theField"
if the number of items in x > maxTabs then \
put the number of items in x into maxTabs
end repeat
I agree with you that the table object is extremely frustrating.
