Rounds a number to the nearest integer.
$round(number)| number | a number, or an expression that evaluates to a number |
Number, with no decimal places.
$round(2.501)
Evaluates to 3.
$round(2.4999)
Evaluates to 2.
$round($substring("123.456",3,3))Evaluates to 3.
Translates data from one character set to another.
$ansitodos(string)| string | a character string or an expression that evaluates to a character string |
Converts the data in string from the ANSII character set to the OEM character set.
Translates data from one character set to another.
$dostoansi(string)| string | a character string or an expression that evaluates to a character string |
Converts the data in string from the OEM character set to the ANSII character set.
Calculates an exponential value of the natural base (e).
$exp(number)| number | a number or an expression that evaluates to a number |
Number, with the same number of decimal places as number.
$exp(2.000)
The above expression means “the natural base e, squared” and evaluates to 7.389.
Returns the last Automatic Sequence Number applied.
$ ZimSeqNum
Number, representing an Automatic Sequence Number or $Null in case of an error.
The value returned by $ ZimSeqNum is taken from the most recent ASN used. Notice that when the ADD command adds more than one record, $ ZimSeqNum will contain the value of the last record added.
$ ZimSeqNum also returns the number set using SET SEQUENCENUMBER MyEnt . Upon execution of SET SEQUENCENUMBER MyEnt ON, $ZimSeqNum returns the next number available. The $ZimSeqNum result after executing SET SEQUENCENUMBER ALL ON is undefined.
If all ADD statements refer to objects that contain ASN, the $ZimSeqNum will return the value taken by the last ADD:
ADD 1 Customers ...
ADD 100 MyEnt from MyDoc ...output $ZimSeqNumCalculates a time value by adding hours to (or subtracting hours from) a specified time value.
$addhours(time,number)
where
| time | an 8-digit number, or an expression that evaluates to an 8-digit number, that expresses a valid time value in the format HHMMSSTT |
| number | a number, or an expression that evaluates to a number |
Number, representing a time value.
Use $addhours to perform arithmetic with time values. The $addhours function calculates a time value by adding a number representing hours to a time value. If number is negative, the effect is to subtract the hours from the time.
If $Time has the value 22503075, then
$addhours($time,1)
Evaluates to 23503075.
$addhours($time,2)
Evaluates to 00503075.
$addhours($time,-3)
Evaluates to 19503075.
The function $RightClickMenu displays a right-click menu at the location of the last right click or at (0,0) if none has occurred. It has the following syntax:
$RightClickMenu ("ListOfMenuItems")where ListOfMenuItems is a string composed of menu item strings separated by semicolons. The menu separator is a valid menu item and is identified by one dash or minus sign “-“.
$RightClickMenu returns a string that identifies the chosen menu item or a null string if no item was chosen. The $RightClickMenu is limited to entries 31 bytes in length.
Example
$RightClickMenu ("Line 1;Line number 2;-;Another Line;Yet Another Line;")Calculates the square root of a number.
$sqrt(number)| number | a positive number or an expression that evaluates to a positive number |
Number, with the same number of decimal places as number.
$sqrt (100)
The above expression means “the square root (in base 10) of 100” and evaluates to 10.
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.
