Example

// Optional click code on the TABLE_TABLE1 control
MyRow is int
MyColumn is string
MyRow = TABLE_TABLE1.InfoXY(tiLineNumber, MouseXPos(), MouseYPos())
MyColumn = TABLE_TABLE1.InfoXY(tiColName, MouseXPos(), MouseYPos())
Trace("You have selected the cell (" + MyColumn+", " + MyRow + ")")

// Index of the row at point (50, 100) of the "TABLE_ProductTable" control
ResInfo = TABLE_ProductTable.InfoXY(tiLineNumber, 50, 100)

Syntax

<Result> = <Table control>.InfoXY(<Type of information> , <X> , <Y>)

<Result>: Character string or integer

Requested information.
An empty string ("") if there is no column name.
-1 if there is no column index or row number, or if the specified position corresponds to an empty row or column.

<Table control>: Control name

Name of Table or TreeView Table control to use.

<Type of information>: Constant

Requested type of information:
tiColName Column name.
This constant is not available.
tiColNumber Column creation index.
This constant is not available.
tiLineNumber Row number.
Versions 25 and later
tiOnButtonCollapseExpand
New in version 25
tiOnButtonCollapseExpand
tiOnButtonCollapseExpand "+/-" buttons to expand/collapse a row. In this case, <Result> is set to True (1).
This constant is only available for TreeView Table controls.
This constant is not available.
tiOriginScreen The coordinates to be analyzed are relative to the screen.
Reminder: By default, the coordinates to be analyzed are relative to the Table control: (0,0) corresponds to row 1, column 1 of the Table control (scrollbars positioned at the origin).
This constant cannot be used on its own.
This constant is not available.

<X>: Integer

X-coordinate (in pixels) to be analyzed. This coordinate is given in relation to the control (if the tiOriginScreen constant is not specified).

<Y>: Integer

Y-coordinate (in pixels) to be analyzed. This coordinate is given in relation to the control (if the tiOriginScreen constant is not specified).

Remarks

Use conditions

<Table>.InfoXY can be used on:

a Table or TreeView Table control based on a data file.
a Table or TreeView Table control populated programmatically.
a single-selection or multiselection control.

The TreeView Table control is not available.

The different types of column indices

There are 2 types of indices for columns:

Index of the visible position: index of the column when the window is executed.
Creation index: index of the column when the table is created in the window editor.

These indices change if the user moves the columns.

Additionally, if the horizontal scrollbar is used, <Table>.InfoXY takes this change into account.

Using MouseXPos and MouseYPos

To use MouseXPos and MouseYPos in the X and Y parameters of the function, make sure that a single mouse click will trigger the execution of the code containing this function.

For example, the event "Selecting a row" of a Table control can be started by a simple click but also by a keyboard selection. Therefore, MouseXPos and MouseYPos should not be used in this event. Use an optional event instead. In this example, use the optional event "Left button down" on aTable control.
