Indicates whether a C/AL variant contains a Text variable.
Ok := Variant.ISTEXT |
Parameters
- Variant
- Type: Variant
Property Value/Return Value
Type: Boolean
true if the C/AL variant contains a Text variable; otherwise, false.
Example
The following example determines whether a C/AL variant contains a text variable. The code initializes the MyText variable with a text value. The MyText variable is assigned to the variant variable that is named MyVariant. The ISTEXT function determines whether the variant contains a text variable and stores the return value in the varResult variable. In this case, the variant contains a text variable so Yes is returned and displayed in a message box. The ISCODE function determines whether the variant contains a code variable. The return value is No because the variant does not contain a code. This example requires that you create the following variables and text constants in the C/AL Globals window.
| Variable name | DataType | Length |
|---|---|---|
|
MyText |
Text |
50 |

MyVariant |
Variant |

Does the variant >%1< contain a text variable? %2. |
|
Text001 |
Does the variant >%1< contain a code variable? %2. |
