Create table dynamically

[MiZ 0]

I need your help!

 

I want to create a table like this:

tbl={{text= 'String 1', value='1'},{text= 'String 2', value='2'}}

 

but, I need to do this dynamically during execution, something like this

tbl[1].text="String 1"

tbl[1].value="1"

tbl[2].text="String 2"

tbl[2].value="2"

but I can seem to find the correct syntax for this.

 

Any ideas?

In your solution, inputPairs is hardcoded.

I need to create the table without knowing how many text/value combos need to be added in the end. And these values (text and value) are strings in the input data.

You dont need to know how many text/value combos are coming from source..

Byt the text, and value pairs should come from somewhere...what is the source?

InData.name and InData.id inside a loop.

I think I find a solution on the syntax required. Below the inside of the loop:

dev[cnt]={}
dev[cnt]={text=""..InData.name.."",value=""..InData.id..""}
cnt=cnt+1
 

Thanks for your help!!
