Return Value

Example
Enter the datapoint element in the text field. When you click the button, the following script checks whether an AC type exists and, if it does, returns the AC type name in a selection list.
main()
{
int value;
value = abs(-56412);
//Setzt 'value' auf den Wert 56412
string name, acType;
name = TextField1.text;
acGetRefACType(name, acType);
DebugN("DP: ",name);
DebugN("AC-DPT: ",acType);
if(acType == "")
SelectionList1.appendItem = "empty";
else
SelectionList1.appendItem = acType;
}main()
{
string name, acType;
name = TextField1.text;
acGetRefACType(name, acType);
DebugN("DP: ",name);
DebugN("AC-DPT: ",acType);
if(acType == "")
SelectionList1.appendItem = "empty";
else
SelectionList1.appendItem = acType;
}
