GetDTFlags Method (EDITDATETIME)

?9.4D, PLBCMP GUI Only

The GetDTFlags method returns the current behavior bit mask value being used for an EDITDATETIME object. This method uses the following format:

Where:

label

Optional. A Program Execution Label.

object

Required. An EDITDATETIME object that is accessed.

return

Optional. A Numeric Variable that returns current behavior bit value that controls specific processing behaviors of the object.

Flags Affected: EOS, OVER, ZERO

Note the following:

1. The EOS flag is always cleared.

2. The ZERO flag is set when the return value is zero. The {return} value is a sixteen (16) bit value.

3. The OVER flag is set if the {return} variable is too small to store that value without being truncated.

4. The {return} bit mask values are defined as follows:

 

Value	Scrolls the text ...
0x1	When this bit is turned on, the EDITDATETIME reports will always use NULL data any time that the DTS_NONE style is being used.  Therefore, the behavior of the EDITDATETIME object is changed as described for the GETMODE *EDITDATETIMEMODE keyword.

 

5. When using the PL/B Web Server, this method is not supported.
