Table control syntax

Hi,

I'm running a For Each Row of Table loop from a button and if it fails a condition, I would like to change the color of the currently processed row. I just can't seem to get the syntax right. I tried

For Each Row of table
if condition then
table[table]..Color=iwhite
end
End

but it doesn't work. I also tried

For Each Row of table
if condition then
subscript=tableselect(table)
table[subscript]..Color=iwhite
end
End

This doesn't work either. Any help would be much appreciated

Thanks and regards

Hello Issah

In my experience the For Each function for tables is broken.

After several issues like yours when it was first released, I only ever use the old way.
nTbleRow is int = 0
nTbleCount is int = TableCount(Table)

For nTbleRow = 1 to nTbleCount

I know the For Each function is supposed to be faster but it is unreliable. I think it scrambles its internal counters if you do anything that uses a "Table" function inside it's loop because it works ok otherwise.

For Each Row X of table
if condition then
table[X]..Color=iwhite
end
End

Thanks. I'm good now.

Hi AI,

Does your mistrust of the For Each construct have anything to do with the size of the table?

Hello Issah

No, the size of the table doesn't matter and I have some quite large memory tables.
I do use the For Each function in memory tables but only when I do not also use any table functions inside the loop.

The problem may have been fixed as I am going back a few years now.
From memory, the loop would stop and exit if I changed a value in the table.
