A RETURN statement directs the calculation to return with or without a value. A RETURN statement must begin with the keyword RETURN. A RETURN statement may return the result of the calculation to be placed in the field that initiated the script.
A RETURN statement is also used to return results to one calculation script from another. Using a CALL statement temporarily suspends the current script calculation and sends control to another script file. A RETURN statement sends control back to the original script which may then continue processing.
Here are some sample RETURN statements:
RETURN(@("LAST_NAME") & ', ' & @("FIRST_NAME") & " " & @("MIDDLE_INIT"))
RESULT: Takes the data in the section variable field LAST_NAME adds a comma; adds the data in the section variable field FIRST_NAME; adds the data in the section variable field MIDDLE_INIT and places this data in another section variable field.
RETURN (CALL('FirstFile'))
RESULT: Returns the result of the calculation generated by calling the script FirstFile.
