Description

The VP Get value command retrieves a cell value from a designated cell range.

In rangeObj, pass a range whose value you want to retrieve.

Returned object

The object returned will contain the value property, and, in case of a js date value, a time property:

PropertyTypeDescription
valueInteger, Real, Boolean, Text, Date, ObjectValue in the rangeObj (except- time)
timeRealTime value (in seconds) if the value is of the js date type

If the object returned includes a date or time, it is treated as a datetime and completed as follows:

  • time value - the date portion is completed as December 30, 1899 in dd/MM/yyyy format (30/12/1899)
  • date value - the time portion is completed as midnight in HH:mm:ss format (00:00:00)

If rangeObj contains multiple cells or multiple ranges, the value of the first cell is returned. The command returns a null object if the cell is empty.

Example

$cell:=VP Cell("ViewProArea";5;2)
$value:=VP Get value($cell)
If(Value type($value.value)=Is text)
VP SET VALUE($cell;New object("value";Uppercase($value.value)))
End if
