FieldToParameters Function

Overview

The FieldToParameters function reads a field string on-the-fly without a Field Object and creates a list of parameters.

Syntax/Parameters

Syntax

string[] = FieldToParameters ( string data );

Parameters

data

A string containing the field tag data.

Return Value

A string array containing field parameters or an empty array on failure. Use the GetLastError function to retrieve a formatted error code.

If the field type is not a well known type, the field value is set as the first property. The last error will contain the result bits with the flag FIELD_RESULT_UNKNOWN_FIELD_NAME set.

Remarks

The first entry will be ‘Field’ with a field type name. Each following key name will be the property-value pair for each parameter.

The field entry will always be the field name whether known or unknown. Check the last error to determine there was an error. The codes are as follows:

    FIELD_RESULT_ERROR_MASK   0x0000FFFF   Result Error Mask  
    FIELD_RESULT_UNKNOWN_PROPERTY   0x00000001   Unknown Properties Name
