InputValue


You use the InputValue keyword to enter a value into a field. The keyword supports unique values by adding the dollar ($) symbol to the end of the text. For example, if the input is john$, then a random unique value appends like "john548".

The InputValue keyword supports the following special characters and operators:

  • * (asterisk). For example: like AAX*.
  • = (equals). For example: date=Today+1.
  • + (plus). For example: Today+1.
  • - (minus). For example: Today-1.
  • LIKE, like. For example: date format like, LIKE AAX*.
  • OR. For example: @var1 OR @var2.
  • Numerals zero to nine (0 - 9).

Signature

The InputValue keyword supports the following signature:

InputValue(AppletRN|FieldRN|[Active_Record/Tileindex/RowNum],Value OR Variable)

Note the following about the HierarchicalList keyword signature:

  • RowNumber is optional. If RowNum is not specified, then RowNum defaults to the first row.
  • Active_Record obtains the row number of the active record during execution.
  • If the action is to be performed on tile applets, then the tile index or row number must start from one.
  • !+! is the delimiter used for concatenating dynamic variable in the middle of input data. For more information, see the examples in the following table.
