UEValue_x

The
UEValue_x
item returns the value for the
x
th
unacknowledged prompt in the unacknowledged prompts list.
This table shows the input and output formats for this item.
Input Format
Request:
UEValue_
<RowNumber>
<RowNumber>
is
ASCII - Integer
An array index. When an unacknowledged prompt generates, it adds to an array. If the unacknowledged prompts list is not sorted, then
x
is the row number of the unacknowledged prompt appearing in the unacknowledged prompts list.
The UEValue_x item requires the
batchsvr.ini
file to contain this setting in the [CLIENT MGR DDE] section:
MaxPromptTableLength = n
where
n
is the maximum number of unacknowledged prompts accessible to this item (the maximum number of entries in the array). And, where 0
£
x
£
MaxPromptTableLength
. If the number of unacknowledged prompts in the unacknowledged prompts list is larger than
n
, then this item will only access the first
n
unacknowledged prompts in a non-sorted unacknowledged prompts list. When an unacknowledged prompt with an index of less than
n
is removed from the unacknowledged prompts list, all subsequent unacknowledged prompts will have their index decreased by one. The default value of
MaxPromptTableLength
is
0
(zero).
Output Format
The UEValue_x item returns in this format:
