table navigation

[gsajja]

hello,

       I was wondering if anybody can give me inputs on navigating a table using arrow button up and down with out using an event structure. I'm using a labview base version.

thanks.

Are you simply trying to be able to scroll through the data? Because if that's the case you can just use the vertical and horixontal scroll bars that are attached to the table. To show these right click on the Table, go to Visible Items and make sure the Horizontal and Vertical scrollbars are checked. Once your data becomes large enough the scroll bars will become active and enabled.

Sorry, I hit Post before I was done...

If you want to programmatically navigate the table based on the arrow buttons you mentioned you would need to use the Index Values property node for the Table, which sets the top-left visible cell of the table, but without the event structure this will take a little bit more work.
