SetCurrentValue

SetCurrentValue is a procedure to set the value for the answer to a question.

Syntax

SetCurrentValue(value, [CurrencyCode, ExchangeDate])

Returns

Not applicable

Usage

The SetCurrentValue procedure sets the value for the question as if the user had entered it. All validation and branching are activated. If the question is a currency question (that is, the answer type is Currency), specify the currency code and exchange date in the function's parameters. The currency code and exchange date parameters are optional.

If a question is to be saved to a business component field, do not use SetCurrentValue() for this question until after the SmartScript has been correctly positioned on that business component.

SetCurrentValue is declared as a string.

Siebel eScript Example

function Question_Enter (){

SetCurrentValue("Hello");

}
