Using for loop inside hiCreateAppForm fields

Sandeep4386
Hi,
I am encountering an error while using a for loop inside hiCreateAppForm fields. Here is the error message:
*Error* hiCreateAppForm: not all fields have 2D attributes specified, and/or illegal attribute values 
 
However if I comment out the for loop then error goes away. 
 
hiCreateAppForm(
?name 'Form
?formTitle "test form"
?fields
list(
      
       list(label 0:0 600:30 200)
list(all 10:30 600:30 20)
list(none 10:60 600:30 20)
list(cellviewFrame 0:90 600:30 200)
for(i 1 count 
  list(cellview[i] 10:90+(i*30) 600:30 20)
);for  
      );list
);hi createAppForm
       
hiDisplayForm(Form)
 
Any help would be appreciated.
P.S. cellview has been declared as an arry in earlier part of the code (declare(cellview[2]) ) 
 
Regards,
Sandeep

    Sandeep,

    The code as Lawrence posted it won't work because it would not be a correctly structured list - for a 2D form you need a list of sublists, and what you would have got is a list of sublists for the first four fields, and then a sublist containing sublists for each cellView.

    So you'd need something like this:

    hiCreateAppForm(
   ?name 'Form
   ?formTitle "test form"
   ?fields
     append(
          list(	
       list(label 0:0 600:30 200)
       list(all 10:30 600:30 20)
       list(none 10:60 600:30 20)
       list(cellviewFrame 0:90 600:30 200)
          )
       foreach(mapcar i linRg(1 count 1)
         list(cellview[i] 10:90+(i*30) 600:30 20)
       );foreach mapcar  
     );append	
);hiCreateAppForm
