Get the controls in a table row

[ebunn3]

Hi,

I am using itemById to gain access to a table in my command dialog.  The table consists of many rows each containing 6 text box controls.  The text box control ids were created using a number system, for example: textbox00 which would be the first one in row 1.  Is there a way to access just the 6 text boxes on a row without know their names?  Can I gain access to the row and then iterate through the controls on that row?

Thanks,

Eric

You can use the TableCommandInput.getInputAtPosition method to get the input at a specified row and column.

Brian,

Thank you so much.  This will work perfectly.  This can be easily implemented into a nested loop.

For anyone else's benefit.  Here is the function I put together to update a table of text controls.

def updateTableText(inputs,id,textAdd):
    """pass in inputs, id of table, nested list of values
    structured to match rows and columns in table"""
    table = inputs.itemById(id)
    for i in range(0,table.rowCount):
        for j in range(0,table.numberOfColumns):
            ctrl = table.getInputAtPosition(i, j)
            ctrl.formattedText = '<div align="center", style="font-size:10px" , style="color:black" ><b>' + textAdd[i][j] + '</b></div>'
