# InsertTableCellRangeRingItem

int InsertTableCellRangeRingItem (int panel, int control, Rect cellRange, int index, const char *value);

## Purpose

Inserts a new item into the list of values of a specified range of ring or combo-box cells of a table control.

The indexes of existing values at and beyond the specified index are increased by one.

## Parameters

Input
Name | Type | Description
panelHandle | integer | Specifier for a particular panel that is currently in memory. You obtain this handle from LoadPanel, NewPanel, or DuplicatePanel.
controlID | integer | The defined constant, located in the .uir header file, that you assigned to the control in the User Interface Editor, or the ID returned by NewCtrl or DuplicateCtrl.
cellRange | Rect | A Rect structure specifying the range of cells into which you want to insert the new value. The cells in the specified range must be of type VAL_CELL_RING, or VAL_CELL_COMBO_BOX, or a mixture of the two. If the range includes cells of any other type, an error is returned and the results are unspecified. The Rect structure is defined as follows: typedef struct { int top; int left; int height; int width; } Rect; Pass the one-based row and column indices of the first cell in the range as the top and left fields of the structure, respectively. Pass the number of columns in the range as the width field of the structure, and the number of rows in the range as the height field of the structure. You can create a Rect without having to declare a variable by using the following function: Rect MakeRect (int top, int left, int height, int width); Example InsertTableCellRangeRingItem (panelHandle, controlID, MakeRect (2, 3, 5, 5), -1, "new value");
index | integer | The zero-based index into the value list of the cells where the new item is placed. Pass –1 to insert the new item at the end of the value list. This index must be valid for every cell in the specified range. If it is not valid for one or more cells, an error is returned and the results are unspecified.
value | string | The new value to insert in the value list. If ATTR_RING_ITEMS_UNIQUE is enabled and this value matches an existing value in the list, then a new item will not be added to the list.

## Return Value

Name | Type | Description
status | integer | Return value indicating whether the function was successful. A negative number indicates that an error occurred.
Code | Error Message String
xx | Success
