interactive working with sql

[korst]

hello,
for my project it is important that i can choose some cell from a table by clicking on it and after that use that value. this table on the front panel is filled with data from a remote sql database. is it somehow possible to use the mouse cursor to select data from that table while the VI is running?

could anybody help me please? thanks

Hi Korst,

In case it may provide some ideas, here's an example that populates a Table Control with strings and checks whether the user has selected a cell.  You could populate the Table from your database.  What to do with the selected-text is up to you!

This examples makes use of property-nodes - which can be really slow.  The nested loops that initialize the Table make 26**2 references to the Table property-node and there's a trick to speed this up - do you see it? 

Cheers.
