I agree completely that row/column functionality should be added
to HyperCard fields.  This would tremendously improve functionality,
make simultaneously scrolling columns a snap, and would open up a new
genre of HyperCard applications. By adding it as a property of fields it
could be comfortably absorbed into the current user interface. Functions
like "the clickChunk" could return the selected cell coordinates. While
I'm sure that the team is already considering this. I'd like to add my
vote in favor of it.
