OIC. I was struggling with that earlier today. The problem is, there is no 
cell. Just a field. You can get the line with the clickLine, but I discovered 
that even with cell editing on, the table field acted erratically, adding lines 
when I didn’t want them.

Since you know the tabstops, you can calculate where in the field the user 
clicked, and therefore the “cell”. You will have to do some math though. If the 
field is horizontally scrolled you will have to take that scroll into account.

Honestly it would be better to just have a data grid. That is what I ended up 
doing.

Ah Bob. You misunderstand. We are asking in reference to the table field, not 
DG. Finding the index in data grid is very easy indeed. In a table field,  it 
so much as I was to understand. But apparently there is some magic I’ve missed 
somewhere and perhaps I’m the only one. Do you know what it is?
