Programmatically control table text edit box

Hello, all!

 

Is there a way to programmatically control the text editing box in a table control, i.e., make it appear through means other than a mouse click on the table?  

 

Thanks!

You can set the value of any single cell using Invoke Node => Set Cell Value.  Is this what you are looking for?

Hi, Matthew!  Thanks for your reply.

 

Not exactly; what I'd like to be able to do is make the table control "edit-ready" for the user, without the user having to perform a mouse click on the table or a particular cell.  I don't see any property or invoke nodes that would allow for that, but I might be missing something.  Setting Key Focus to "true" doesn't seem to do it, either.  (Not for a table control, anyway.)

Hello all,

 

I found a way to do what I want in an example VI at http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/2317 , "Shifting Key Focus to a Table Cell Programmatically".  I guess I just wasn't searching with the right question.  Smiley Tongue  My thanks to Matthew and all who read my post.
