DataSheetGetRowDataWord Function

Overview

The DataSheetGetRowDataWord function returns the 32-bit caller dword associated with the row.

Syntax/Parameters

Syntax

dword = DataSheetGetRowDataWord ( handle hSheet, int index );

Parameters

hSheet

A handle to a Data Sheet object.

index

A zero-based int representing the row index.

Return Value

Returns a dword representing the caller row data or 0 on failure. Use the IsError and IsNotError functions to detect an error and the GetLastError function to retrieve error information. Since the row dword can be set to 0 (the default), the last error must be examined to determine if an error occurred.

Remarks

 The caller row data is a 32-bit value associated with each row and is used by many functions and views to control or group content on templates. This meta data is not used by the data sheet and is carried specifically to support functions using the Data Sheet Object.

The Data Sheet object must have a row array to be able to use this function (although, if it does not, the return value will be 0 which is effectively like referencing an uninitialized row data word). The row array is automatically created as required. 

The caller data can also be retrieved using the DataSheetGetRowProps function. The caller row data is the same as the keyword “CallerData” for row properties.
