          Hi,

           

           

          From API Guide.qvw ...

           

          set TableBox = ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject( "TB01" )

          for RowIter = 0 to TableBox.GetRowCount-1

              for ColIter =0 to TableBox.GetColumnCount-1

                  set cell = TableBox.GetCell(RowIter,ColIter)

                  msgbox(cell.Text)

              next

          next

              Hi flipside

               

              Where in the API did you get this? The Automation Examples sheet? If so, what search did you do on member?

                  Hi Ian,

                   

                  I'm working in QV10 and got it from ...

                   

                  Class = TableBox

                  Member = GetCell

                   

                  ...  showing as introduced in 6.0x.

                      If I don't want to loop through each column but just get a value from one column how would i do that? 

                       

                      set TableBox = ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject( "tb_emails_to_send" )

                          for RowIter = 0 to TableBox.GetRowCount-1   

                              set cell = ?

                              msgbox(cell.Text)   

                          next

                          This code moves from column to column and row to row and keepings counting. It gets the value in the 16th spot in the loop and puts into the variable vValue and exits the sub routine.

                            You just need to specify the column index (starting at zero for column 1) so looping through values in the first column would need...

                             

                                      set cell = TableBox.GetCell(RowIter,0)
