Working with tables in Java™ classes

To access a table in a rich text item, use the RichTextNavigator methods in conjunction with the type RichTextItem.RTELEM_TYPE_TABLE and RichTextItem.RTELEM_TYPE_TABLECELL. To access the cells in a table, use the RichTextNavigator methods in conjunction with the type RichTextItem.RTELEM_TYPE_TABLECELL. To create a table, use the appendTable method in RichTextItem. After creating a table, you must navigate in the rich text item to access it.

Once you access a table, the NotesRichTextTable class lets you add rows, remove rows, remove the table, and use the following properties:

Property	Data type	Description

getColumnCount	int	Number of columns in the table.
isRightToLeft and setRightToLeft	boolean	True if the reading order of the table is right to left.
getRowCount	int	Number of rows in the table.
getRowLabels and setRowLabels	String vector	Labels, one per row, that appear in tabbed tables.
getStyle and setStyle	int	Table color style. Use with Color and AlternateColor.
