I have been looking at your Table Control. You have one procedure commented out, viz:


PROCEDURE NextTable * (OUT n: INTEGER; OUT link: ARRAY OF CHAR);

VAR i: INTEGER; nTables: POINTER TO ARRAY OF Table; str: Dialog.String;

BEGIN
  IF tables = NIL THEN
    NEW(nTables, 1); n := 0
  ELSE
    n := LEN(tables); NEW(nTables, n + 1);
    FOR i := 0 TO n - 1 DO nTables[i] := tables[i] END
  END;
  tables := nTables; NEW(tables[n]);
  link := "CtrlsTable.tables["; Strings.IntToString(n, str); link := link$ + str; link := link + "]"
END NextTable;


I can see what you are trying to do here - because otherwise a table control always has to be linked to a single variable (i.e. VAR
t1*: CT.Tab; and the link in the control properties has to be "CtrlsTable.t1") - but the link field of control properties doesn't appear to recognize links of the form "CtrlsTable.tables[0]".

So, how could one use a variable number of tables in an application? If anybody has a solution to this, could they offer some advice on the list?

Many thanks, Martin
