ISCODE Function (Variant)

Indicates whether a C/AL variant contains a Code variable.

Ok := Variant.ISCODE

Parameters

  • Variant
    Type: Variant

Property Value/Return Value

Type: Boolean

true if the C/AL variant contains a Code variable; otherwise, false.

Example

The following example determines whether a C/AL variant contains a code variable. The code initializes the MyCode variable with a string value. The MyCode variable is assigned to the variant variable that is named MyVariant. The ISCODE function determines whether the variant contains a code variable and stores the return value in the varResult variable. In this case, the variant contains a code variable so Yes is returned and displayed in a message box. The ISTEXT Function (Variant) determines whether the variant contains a text variable. The return value is No because the variant does not contain a text. This example requires that you create the following variables and text constants in the C/AL Globals window.

Variable name DataType Length

MyCode

Code

100

MyVariant

Variant

varResult

Boolean

Not applicable

Text constant name ConstValue

Text000

Does the variant >%1< contain a code variable? %2.

Text001

Does the variant >%1< contain a text variable? %2.

MyCode := 'A1297';
MyVariant :=  MyCode;
varResult := MyVariant.ISCODE;
MESSAGE(Text000,MyVariant,varResult);
varResult := MyVariant.ISTEXT;
MESSAGE(Text001,MyVariant,varResult);
