Hi - quick question
Is it possible to turn off the borders in a NotesRichTextTable? There’s a lot of stuff in the help about setting background colors etc, but I’d really like to have a borderless table.
thanks

The only way to do that is to begin with a “seed” table that has no borders. It can be a single row, stored in an RTF in a document kept for exactly that purpose. AddRow will keep the border style on subsequent rows. The problem is that it has to have the right number of columns, and have the widths you want right from the get-go, since there’s no way to programmatically change either of those once the table is defined in the native classes.

There is an ugly way if would prefer using the C++ API. The C++ API does expose this functionality via the LNTableCell class.

Thanks for the pointer - however, I’m just using LS at the moment - trying to build a simple report in an RTitem, with using all the rendertortitem gubbins.
Can I call that api from LS? I know that there are some DLL’s you can declare functions from etc, but I’ve never really got that far into it …
Thanks

…and there is DXL. Different gubbins, but you can do it entirely in LotusScript.

Well, credit where credit is due – thank Ben Langhinrichs (it may have been in the RNext beta forum). All I did was remember.

Open up the Table properties dialog box. The second and forth tabs control borders and lines.
