table command or parse bug?

I want to clear the content of a cell.

table -r LABEL_TEXT mytable -1 1 “”

doesn’t change its contents

table -r LABEL_TEXT mytable -1 1 " "

also doesn’t work… no only this last one points to a parser bug, but the first one - with or without “” should work!

let me know,
tx

Hey Dani,

Both of these examples work for me. They clear the contents of the cell located at rowname “LABEL_TEXT” and column 1.

The table command has a lot of options and you are using a mix of available options, but it works for me here.

Try the tabcell command. It is more straightforward in its syntax and lets you more easily mix specifying a cell by row name and column index.

Using tabcell it would look like this when resetting the cell located at row = ROWNAME and column = 1…

tabcell mytable Rc ROWNAME 1 “”
