SalNumber ValueStringGet( SalString sSection, SalString sEntry, SalString sDefault, ref SalString sValue )
The ValueStringGet method reads a string value from the personal or default profile.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| SalString sSection | Name of section from which to read the value. The section name is combined with the entry name to form a unique key for the value to be written. |
| SalString sEntry | Name of entry to read in the specified section. |
| SalString sDefault | Value that will be returned in sValue if the specified entry and section does not exist. |
| ref SalString sValue | Value of the specified entry read from the profile. |
The return value is the string length of sValue.
The ValueStringGet method always checks the personal profile first. If the specified section and entry do not exist in the personal profile, the default profile is used instead. If the specified section and entry doesn't exist in either profile, the sDefault value is returned.
Call Profile.ValueStringGet ( sProfileSection, 'EnterToTab', sDefault, sValue ) Call _MDIMapEnterToTabSet( ( sValue = 'TRUE' ) )Var.Profile.ValueStringGet(sProfileSection, "DesignTimeOrderBy", "TRUE", ref sValue);
