HI how can i speed up building a table control on CVI5.5 when i try to build control with 1000 rows or more ( the columns are not the same type) it takes up to 30 sec to set the value of all the rows.

Set the value of all the cells in a column at the same time with SetTableCellRangeVals. This means that you will only have to update the Table once for each column which should be very fast.

An other trick to speed up the filling of the cells is to use

SetTableCellAttribute (panel, id, pos, ATTR_CTRL_VAL, szText);
instead of
SetTableCellVal(...)

Hiding the table before updating it is another way to gain speed.
For example:

SetCtrlAttribute (panelTop, PANEL_TOP_TABLE, ATTR_VISIBLE, 0);
Table update calls ...
SetCtrlAttribute (panelTop, PANEL_TOP_TABLE, ATTR_VISIBLE, 1);
