Where do I find reference, user guide, or help file for B4XTable . I assume that the files would be the same for B4A and B4J wouldnt they?.

Sorry! I should have posted to the original thread. I will be more careful!

I think that I followed all of the rules in the post
'for-new-er-members-how-to-post-a-question-issue.96964/'

I am new to B4X but have been in software development for a very long time so I do understand 'look first before asking'. And I had already looked at
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...ortable-searchable-customizable-table.102322/ and have searched, viewed, and downloaded most of the B4XTable posts. I was looking for a reference, user guide, or help file so I wouldn't need to ask a lot of questions in the forum.

... so I do understand 'look first before asking...
Agreed, hence the I think your questions are usually pretty good.

Sounds like you've got most everything. Three other places outside of forum posts that I often refer to are:
- the B4X Goodies spreadsheet,
- Klaus' booklets.
- Erel's videos
but it's late at night here and my eyelids are too heavy to chase those possible sources right now re: B4XTable.
Now that it is less late (or more early?) I had a poke around, and:

B4X Goodies mentions the following posts (which you've probably already found ;-)

B4XTable - Adding custom navigation buttons [B4X] https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-b4xtable-adding-custom-navigation-buttons.102362/
B4XTable is a paged based table. The UI is made of a horizontal xCLV. The data is stored in an in-memory SQLite database. https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/t...ortable-searchable-customizable-table.102322/
B4XTable - Delete Row [B4X] https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-b4xtable-delete-row.103582/
B4XTable - Editable table and export to CSV [B4X] https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-b4xtable-editable-table-and-export-to-csv.102847/
B4XTable - Load data from SQL database [B4X] https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-b4xtable-load-data-from-sql-database.102520/
B4XTable - Multiple rows selection [B4X] https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-b4xtable-multiple-rows-selection.102364/
In this example the table is used to show the camera roll photos. https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4xtable-photos-album.103343/
B4XTable - Resize columns based on content [B4X] https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-b4xtable-resize-columns-based-on-content.102678/
B4XTable + jPoi + Excel Workbook https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4xtable-jpoi-excel-workbook.104720/
B4XTable with custom cells layout [B4X] https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-b4xtable-with-custom-cells-layout.102352/

Klaus booklets cover B4XUI generally but not B4XTable specifically.

Ditto Erel's videos.

Depending on how deeply you delve into the topic and what you discover, perhaps this is a sign that you are the Chosen One to document your explorations and post the Ultimate B4XTable Tutorial.

Yes, I had viewed all of the B4X goodies mentioned, downloaded almost all of them and traced the running code on 3.

I have not viewed the Klaus booklet on B4XUI but have downloaded all of them so I will read it.

I have not viewed any of the videos because I am mostly deaf and have a very difficult time on videos. But I think that I will try a few anyway after my appointment with the hearing aid people Thursday.

I have found that the IDE will give me a lot of information on the methods and properties just like VB6 does.

And I truely to thank you for all the info!

My initial thought to that was: no worries, the videos are on YouTube, and nowadays YouTube automatically adds auto/machine transcription to videos. It ain't perfect, but it's good enough, and anybody can go in and edit the mistakes.

But when I looked at the specific video to make sure I wasn't giving you dud info, well... it doesn't have transcription/subtitling, and it seems that the uploader has to enable/allow it. So I'll add that to the Wish List area of the forum, and perhaps magic might happen!
