Tables help

This is going to sound completely noobish, but I just now started messing with tables and have a question. So I have a boolean in a table. How do I reference it directly for a level unlock type of deal? Thanks

    You use the tableCellValue function. You can't reference it on the left side of a rule do if you need to do that, do Change Attribute self.whatever (Boolean) to tableCellValue() and then do When attribute self.whatever is true/false ...

    Correct me if Im crazy, but I want to be like If tableCellValue() true, ChangeImage. How would I go about doing that?

    Like tatiang said:

    1) Make an attribute - let's call it: "AAA"

    2) Then copy the tableCellValue(whatever) into "AAA" using: Change Attribute self.AAA to tableCellValue(whatever)

    3) Now you can use a rule that says: When Attribute "AAA" = true/false then Change Image.

    I may just be tired, but I still don't understand. Is there a video or a demo of this anywhere? Would you mind whipping on up for me?
