How to manually enable a specific cell?

Hello,
 
This question is for either table or array, whichever one works best.
I'm writing a test program trying to get familiarized with LabVIEW and ran into the following problem: How to display a set of values but allow the user to only edit certain ones and keep the rest locked (disabled and grayed out)? 
 
Thanks

Well you can't do exactly what you asked, but it is probably possible to do something that works the way you want. Can you post a screen shot showing what you want the interface to look like?

Multi-column list boxes allow editing of cells, ALL the cells not just selected cells. But you can emulate editing of only select cells by using the event handler to determine what cell is being edited. If it's not a cell you want the user to play with, you can discard the edit. See example where only row 4 and column 4 cell can be edited:

There's also a similar example for tables that Ben posted here.

How did you get the Column/Row box to show up? Thanks

Wire a named unbundler to the cluster coming from the Coords terminal.
