Cell formatting in Table Field

[synto]

Thanks very much Craig, this is very helpfull.
Unfortunately, i cannot use a vertical calendar cause i need all the width of screen, i have lots of informations to display there.

I've found a solution using unicode char like u20dd (a circle) on a table field overlaying the calendar, it's ok on the desktop PC, but on the phone, the circles are not displayed. So another solution is necessary.
For now, I'm just going to color the text of the days.


Your script is exactly what i need to get the day clicked, do you know how I can calculate the month by getting the cell clicked (using the tabstop) ?

Not sure how your calendar is constructed. Are there only a series of dates without any other information? In other words, at the end of the "January" portion of the horizontal calendar, does it just read:

"27 28 29 30 31 1 2 3"

Anyway, you can determine the item clicked on:

Code: Select all

on mouseDown
   put the clickchunk into tChunk
   set the itemDel to tab
   answer the number of items of  char 1 to (word 2 of tChunk) of fld 1
end mouseDown

which will tell you which day of the year, like 125, you have. 125 would be in April. Watch out for leap years.
