Cell Table Properties

Use the Properties page for the cell table control to configure the appearance of the cell table.

Note: When using a cell table, keep in mind that, on the device, the cell table displays only text labels and images. If you want to use binary data, use the grid table control.

Number of columns	Choose the number of columns that will be in each cell.
Assign percentages	The width of each column in the cell, in percentages. The defaults are 33% for the first column, 34% for the second column, and 33% for the third column.
Support sorting	This adds the sort option to the context menu for the available columns in a table with data that can be sorted. The default text for the name of the context menu item when it appears on the device is "Sort on Column."
Support paging	Enables paging on the record data for a table, which can reduce the memory usage for large tables. Note: Paging is not supported on Windows Mobile devices. Start Paging Record Number – enter the number of records that should be in the table before the table performs paging. Normally this would be twice the paging size. The minimum number is 25, and the maximum is 10,000. Paging Record Size – enter the number of records to store in a table page. The minimum number is 25, and the maximum is 10,000. Number of Pages to Cache – enter the number of table pages to cache in memory. This number must be 2 or more, but typically not more than 3, which conserves memory and also allows for good performance. The maximum allowed is 10 pages.
