Notes

If the Enforce Web functionality equivalence in local project screens option is selected in the project settings, this function cannot be called in VBScript Global Procedures, VBScript scripts (script groups), or other background tasks. This is because the function behaves differently depending on whether you view project screens locally (that is, on the same computer that hosts the project runtime) or remotely. For more information, see Preferences tab.

Examples
