Determines if a particular window is currently open for use.
$iswinopen(string)| string | a character string or an expression that evaluates to a character string |
Evaluates to “1” ($True) if string is the name of a window that is currently open; otherwise, evaluates to “0” ($False).
Use the value of the function to determine if a particular window is currently open.
Extracts minutes information from a standard time value.
$minutes(time)| time | an 8-digit number, or an expression that evaluates to an 8-digit number, expressing valid time in the form HHMMSSTT |
Number.
The system variable $Time is often used for time.
$minutes($Time)
Evaluates to 59 when $Time has the value 23595999.
Extracts seconds information from a standard time value.
$seconds(time)| time | an 8-digit number, or an expression that evaluates to an 8-digit number, expressing valid time in the form HHMMSSTT |
Number.
The system variable $Time is often used for time.
$seconds($Time)
Evaluates to 59 when $Time has the value 23595999.
Determines which exponent of base 10 yields a given value.
$log10(number)| number | a positive number or an expression that evaluates to a positive number |
Number, with the same number of decimal places as number.
let var1=$log10(100)
The above expression means “the exponent of base 10 that yields the value 100” and evaluates to 2.
Determines if compiled versions of application programs are to be executed.
SET [LOCAL] RUNTIME ON|OFF
Specifies if the Runtime system is to be available for program execution. When RUNTIME is set OFF, compiled programs are treated as if they are not compiled.
A SET LOCAL RUNTIME command can be used inside a program to make the Runtime system locally available to that program when RUNTIME is globally switched off. If that program subsequently calls another program, however, the Runtime system is unavailable within the second program.
The SET RUNTIME command is not affected by the SET RESET and SET RESTORE commands.

Determines which exponent of the natural base (e) yields a given value.
$log(number)| number | a positive number or an expression that evaluates to a positive number |
Number, with the same number of decimal places as number.
$log(7.389)
The above expression means “the exponent of the natural base that yields the value 7.389” and evaluates to 2.000.
Extracts “hours” information from a standard time value.
$hours(time)| time | an 8-digit number, or an expression that evaluates to an 8-digit number, expressing valid time in the form HHMMSSTT |
Number.
The system variable $Time is often used for time.
$hours($Time)
Evaluates to 23 when $Time has the value 23595999.
Controls tracing of retrieval strategy information.
SET STRATEGY ON|OFF
The SET STRATEGY command is OFF by default.
When SET STRATEGY is set ON, the software displays the chosen retrieval strategy for each command that accesses the database (i.e., FIND, COMPUTE, LIST, REPORT FROM, CHANGE, ADD, DELETE, SELECT, UPDATE). The retrieval strategy information is written to the destination specified in the last SET TRACE OUTPUT command.
See Also
The error message generated by the last command that returned an error code.
$lasterrmessage
A character string. Can be reset by an application program.
$Null at the beginning of each application session. The value changes only if an error occurs, or if the application program explicitly assigns a value.
When non-$Null, the variable represents, for the current session, the software message generated for the most recently executed command that returned an error code.
Calculates the hyperbolic sine of a number.
$sinh(number)| number | a number, or an expression that evaluates to a number, representing an angle (in radians) |
Number, with the same number of decimal places as number.
This function calculates the hyperbolic sine of a number.
let vAngle = $sinh(3.000)
Evaluates to 10.018.
