Controlling row selection in a table field

This section describes how to control which table row is selected in a Set Fields action.

To set an integer field with the number of the selected row

1. Create an active link with a Set Fields If action.
2. In Field column of the Set Fields panel, enter the field where you want the row number entered. (This is usually an integer field.)
3. In the Value column, enter the table field name.
   1. Click the corresponding cell in the Value column, and then click the ellipsis (...) button.
   2. In the Expression Editor, select the table field, and click Add Field.
   3. Click OK.
       The field name appears in the Value column in the proper format (for example, $Help Desk Requests$ ).
       When the active link is executed, the number of the selected row is entered in the field from step 2. For example, if row 5 is selected, 5 is entered.

     This macro generates standalone content. As a consequence you need to make sure to use a syntax that separates your macro from the content before and after it so that it's on a line by itself. For example in XWiki Syntax 2.0+ this means having 2 newline characters (a.k.a line breaks) separating your macro from the content before and after it.
