Thank you in advance. I am using Acrobat Pro 8 and Adobe Livecycle Designer and I am having a problem renumbering my rows. I have a field in my table call RowId and every time i add a new row to my table the field gets its value with this.parent.index. However, when I delete the row, the rowId fields do not get updated. What am I doing wrong?. I have try to put this numbering in the initialize, calculate, click event.
Thanks.

Put the row numbering code into the "initailize" event and then kick the event for the whole table by calling "execInitialize()" for the table's parent subform.

I tried to do this but I am afraid I am doing something wrong. I have the delete button in each row, in a subform in one of the row's cell. this means when I click the delete button I delete the row for this index. Now, I put the row numbering code into the initialize event of the form where my table is. However, when I call the execInitialize() after deleting the row I dont get the renumbering done. I put an alert in the event and looks like the event is not being called after deleting. How is that supposed to work?
Thank you.
