Hi,


I met simple task, but I cannot solve. How to insert table, but without table dialog?


ACL code "it table" invokes table dialog for defining number ofrows and columns.


I know number of rows and columns and I need to insert table by ACL code automatically (and fill by data later).


Does anybody fought with table?

    Arbortext 6.0 Help shows this:

    tbl_insert
    id = tbl_insert(tmid, oid, pos, rows, cols, [tagname])
    This function inserts a new table, specified by table model tmid, with rows rows and cols
    columns, into the document at the point indicated by oid and pos. If tmid is zero (0), then
    the primary table model for the document type will be used.
    tagname is only used by document types that use wrappers. Some document types allow
    several different tags to serve as the wrapper tag surrounding a table. tagname is used to
    specify a wrapper tag; if tagname is omitted, the outer wrapper tag is chosen at random.

    For custom tables, the cols value is ignored.
    Note
    If you have applied an alias map to the document, tagname can be an alias, as well as a
    real name.
    Note
    If the document type definition for your document instance includes the NAMECASE
    GENERAL NO setting, then the tagname parameter will be case-sensitive.
    It returns the ID of the newly-inserted table set if successful, h::tblNullToid otherwise.
    The tbl_insert function will not do a pending delete regardless of the setting of set
    pendingdelete.
