How Do I Programmatically Highlight a Table Cell in LabWindows/CVI?

Primary Software: LabWindows/CVI Development Systems>>Full Development System
Primary Software Version: 2.0
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A

Problem:
I want to programmatically select and highlight a cell in a table using LabWindows/CVI.  However, a border appears around the cell but the cell is not highlighted.

Solution:
The function SetActiveTableCell will be used to highlight the table cell.  However, when you click a button, or other control on on the user interface, the focus shifts from the table.  Only when the table control has focus will the cell be highlighted.  So you will need to call SetActiveCtrl first before calling SetActiveTableCell.  See the attached code for an example.
