Inserts a row into:
  • a Table control,
  • a TreeView Table control,
Remarks:
Example
// Insertion des éléments "Paul" et "Dubois" 
// dans la cinquième ligne de la champ Table "TABLE_TableClient"
ResInsertion = TableInsert(TABLE_TableClient, "Paul" + TAB + "Dubois", 5)
Syntax
<Result> = TableInsert(<Table control> [, <Row> [, <Index>]])
<Result>: Boolean
  • True if the element was inserted,
  • False otherwise.
<Table control>: Control name
Name of the control to be used. This control can correspond to:
  • a Table control.
  • a TreeView Table control.
If this parameter corresponds to an empty string (""), the control used will be the control to which the current event belongs.
<Row>: Optional character string
Row to insert. This row has the following format:
<Elément de la colonne1> + TAB + <Elément de la colonne2> + TAB + ...

If this parameter is not specified, an empty row is inserted into the control. For a control based on a data file, the default values defined in the linked data file are taken into account.
<Index>: Optional integer
Index of the row to insert. The index of the first row is set to 1.
Index not specifiedThe row will be inserted before the current row. If no row is selected, the row is inserted at the bottom of the control.
Index greater than the number of control rows.The row is inserted at the bottom of the control.
Index equal to 0The row is inserted at the beginning of the control.
Index equal to -1The row will be inserted before the current row.
Remarks
TableInsert can be used on:
  • Table or TreeView Table controls based on a data file.
  • Table or TreeView Table controls populated programmatically.
  • single-selection or multi-selection controls.
AndroidiPhone/iPad Table controls based on a data file are not available in edit mode. TableInsert cannot be used on Table controls based on a data file.

Characteristics of inserted row

  • Each inserted element is converted into the type of relevant column.
  • To specify no value for an element, use an empty string ("") or 0 (according to the type of column). For example:
    TableInsert(TABLE_TableClient, "Dubois" + TAB + "Pierre" + TAB + "" + TAB + "21/06/72")
  • If an element corresponds to the calculation result, the numeric expression must be enclosed in brackets. For example:
    TableInsert(TABLE_TableCalcul, (53+29) + TAB + (83-21))

Position of inserted row

By default, the row is inserted at the specified position.
Special cases:
  • If the control is sorted with TableSort, the new row is positioned according to the current sort and not the specified index.
  • If the control is sorted by the user, the sort is ignored when inserting the row. The row is inserted at the specified position.

Limits: Maximum number of lines displayed

The maximum number of lines that can be displayed in a TreeView Table control or Hierarchical Table is limited only by the available RAM (theoretical maximum: 2 billion lines)..
However, we do not advise you to use large Table or TreeView Table controls for performance and user-friendliness reasons (time required to fill the control for example).

Miscellaneous

To add rows at the end of a Table or TreeView Table control, use TableAddLine.

Inserting images

To insert an image into a Table control:
    Note: To display the added image correctly, the column must be of type Image.
    Component: wd300obj.dll
